Run51 is the brainchild of Erin Vilardi. She created the platform to assist women in gaining more of a voice in shaping national policies. Run 51's mission is to support women political candidates as a collective, paving the way for them to gain a majority in each of the 50 state legislatures.
As Erin explains in this week's Motivational Mondays, 51 percent of the US population is women. So, she feels they should hold 51 percent of government jobs, regardless of their backgrounds or demographics.
With a historic number of women now in Congress, they have the ability to shape change more than any other time in history. Organizations like Run51 are poised to empower women by providing materials to help them create effective change campaigns and win more elections.
In this episode you’ll learn how to file for a legislative seat, what a legislature actually does, and how to find the districts in which you are eligible to run for office.
