> and leadership in all areas of our lives. Since our inception, we have run 

> programs that train future women leaders and connect women in Washington 

> State with each other and with women internationally.

> During our first 10 years, we have traveled all over the world on women’s 

> trade and educational delegations, learning how women are leading and 

> tackling the issues they face in each of their countries, locally and 

> nationally. And, in our own backyard, we’ve found women making a difference - 

> from bioethics to wine making - and we’ve given them a forum to share their 

> stories through our monthly Food for Thought (FFT) dinner series. We’ve 

> helped mentor hundreds of young women in the Pacific Northwest by introducing 

> them to women leaders who make Washington work through our Women’s Leadership 

> Training programs. And we honor those women leaders each year at the 

> Governor’s Mansion – women legislators, appointed officials and women 

> lobbyists – who give our state the reputation it has in women’s leadership.

> We're excited about our 2012 Leadership Institute and training a new cohort 

> of women to "Lead Where They Land."  Please help us get the word out by 

> posting our flyer and sharing information with your students.  If anyone has
