Our Key Issues
Our legislative priorities are guided by the key issues identified by the Wyoming Women's Foundation Advisory Board and staff. Explore our focus areas below.
Education
Education is one of the strongest routes for women and girls to achieve economic self-sufficiency.
Health
The health of a woman leads her to better care for herself and her family, get and keep a job, and contribute to community.
Representation
Every woman should have the opportunity to vote so her beliefs are represented. WYWF also encourages women to run for office to ensure women are part of the decision making process.
Childcare & Workplace Policies
Childcare is essential infrastructure for those women and families who choose to work or must work. Childcare eases strains on families and on the workforce.
Income & Asset Development
Wages that allow women and families to make ends meet strengthens families, keeps people in the workforce longer, and leads to more robust communities. Wages a woman earns now allows her the ability to care for herself in the long-term.
