We’re committed to building a West Virginia where every individual’s personal freedoms, including the right to privacy and self-determination, are respected in both spirit and law.

Who We Are

We are a cross-partisan organization striving for common-sense solutions to challenges impacting us all. The West Virginia Women’s Alliance started as a group of friends, business owners, healthcare professionals, and mothers. We aimed to unite as a voice for women and children in our state's politics.

Our Mission

Through collaborative action, we aim to remove barriers to prosperity, encourage balanced, moderate, and accountable leadership, and empower West Virginia women and families to effectively participate in shaping their own futures.

Our Approach

Lift up West Virginia women and families using the following methods:

Research

Identify pragmatic, evidence-based policies that help women and families thrive and are supported by a majority of WV women.

Education

Share information and analysis with the public in order to raise awareness of how WV policymakers are impacting the lives of WV women and families.

Advocacy

Advocate for the fundamental right of women and families to access healthcare, education, and economic opportunities; along with our right to make decisions regarding matters that intimately impact our lives.

Elections

Support women's engagement in West Virginia elections, promoting non-partisan initiatives like voter registration and scorecards, while also endorsing candidates aligned with policies favored by a majority of West Virginia women.

  • "To believe in liberal democracy is to believe that there is more good will in society than ill will; more ground for agreement than disagreement; more things that the majority of people want to preserve and cherish than they want to destroy; more that they love than that they hate; more to unite men and classes than to divide them; and that to find these principles of unity and agreement, through deliberation and compromise, is the duty of civilized human beings."
