She Should Run is a nonpartisan nonprofit working to dramatically increase the number of women considering a run for public office.

Women are less likely to run for public office and therefore are seriously underrepresented. According to the World Economic Forum, “Gender parity has a fundamental bearing on whether or not economies and societies thrive.”

We motivate women from all walks of life to explore the possibility of public office by identifying and tackling the barriers to elected leadership. We do this through data-driven content, education, and collective action.

Women are underrepresented at all levels in the 500,000+ elected offices across the U.S. That is why She Should Run is driven by a vision of seeing 250,000 women run for local, state, and federal offices by 2030.

When more women run, more women lead. And as more and more women from the She Should Run Community become elected officials at all levels of office, they become role models to girls and young women, normalize women’s leadership, and amplify the need for gender parity in office. By encouraging more women to run, we are building a more effective and representative government that can meet the challenges of the 21st century.
