ABOUT Us
Our vision for our beloved Ashe County (whether by birth or by choice) is for Ashe County to be recognized as a place where forward thinking women are empowered and find community; where progressive political ideas are openly discussed and promoted; where government works for all people of the county; and where at least 50% of elected offices are held by women.
Achievement of our vision will require courage, commitment, and thoughtful action. Our focus is on establishing and strengthening relationships with a diverse and all-inclusive array of individuals and organizations throughout Ashe County and the State.
We seek to diminish division and instead focus on commonalities and shared concerns.
Our goal is to create a strong foundation for collaboration and change. We are eager to learn and to educate; to propose solutions; and to promote activism and engagement.
