Board & Leadership
The League of Women in Government is governed by an unpaid project manager, a five-member executive advisory board, and a volunteer group of women from local government across the country. The League is a fiscal project of OneOC, a California 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization.
The League serves as the umbrella organization to support local and statewide organizations that advance women to local government leadership. The League’s objective is to move the needle forward on the number of women serving at the most senior and executive levels in local government management. There are several local and regional local government women’s groups or committees across the country that the League partners with and supports through our national efforts. These organizations include several Women Leading Government chapters, The Legacy Project, the 16/50 Project, the National Forum of Black Public Administrators, the Local Government Hispanic Network, and academic institutions.
