Thanks to my recent participation in WeLead, I had the confidence, training, and support network to say 'yes!' I flipped through my session notes and got to work building a fundraising plan, crafting messaging, organizing a strong team, and setting short and long-term campaign goals. I am proud to say that we won all three races and elected our towns first women-majority to the Township Board of Supervisors. WeLead armed me with the tools and knowledge to help narrow the gender gap in political leadership." Weinroth earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science and Musicfrom Tulane University.
