The North Carolina Center for Women in Public Service is a non-partisan organization that prepares women to seek and serve in
elected and appointed office.

NCCWPS is a nonpartisan, non-profit organization offering strategic courses and programs to train women for political leadership. Acting as a clearinghouse for women considering civic leadership, we have created a statewide network of women committed to the same mission. We are the only organization in this state with such a vision. We believe that as we increase the number of women in office, we also increase North Carolina's recognition that women are highly effective political leaders.


2009 Summer Institute

“ The Institute changed I think I can to I know I can.”

The Summer Institute is the Center's signature project. An interactive, hands-on, high-energy workshop spread over two summer weekends, it is geared toward women who'd like to learn what to expect from running for public office or seeking an appointed position.
