ABOUT THE GGF WOMEN'S LEADERSHIP COOPERATIVE

The Greater Grand Forks Women's Leadership Cooperative (GGFWLC) is a non-profit organization that was formed in 2018 by local women leaders to:

• Create an environment which values trust and honors the individual on their journey of self-discovery. 
• Respect knowledge and share appreciation in an authentic setting.
• Ignite the power of each participant to realize their full potential. 
• Share commitment to empower leadership while creating a community of activism. 
• Strive to improve the lives of female leaders.

 
GGFWLC was founded on a set of shared values that exemplify our mission and showcase our dedication to women across the region.

• Embrace the ways that each of us choose to show up.
• Stand together with each participant as they address their personal vision.
• Encourage others to dare greatly through action steps which amplify self-growth. 
• Appreciate unified greatness through action and word as we gather and embrace our diversity. ​
