Emerge trains Democratic women to run for office and WIN.
We are a network of 6000+ alums nationwide. We are 1200 strong in elected office and counting, with a 74% win rate in 2023, when we elected nearly 250 women to office.
Emerge women are leading at all levels of government, from school boards and city councils to governor's offices and Congress.
Together, we are creating a world where there are no more firsts - no more first Black woman governor, first Latina president, first Indigenous trans member of Congress - because in the world Emerge is building, Democratic women win races for every office up and down the ballot on repeat.
Are you one of them?
