What is Power 50?
Women of Color are poised to provide the sort of transformative leadership our communities and the progressive movement needs right now to achieve its lofty goals of building an America where everyone can thrive.
Power 50 is a 9-month, cohort-based program that provides Women of Color who are already steeped in basic leadership, organizing and management skills, with the deep grounding, tools, practices, political analysis, and relationships they need to stay the course of their convictions.
