Let’s Empower Women to Lead.
We are an organization of Chicago’s most senior and influential women leaders at the forefront of our city’s business, professional, cultural, nonprofit and educational communities. Together, we are committed to empowering all women to lead.
Our vision is
Gender Equity for Women of All Colors
At all levels. Everywhere.
The Chicago Network recognizes that often, women are left behind when it comes to matters of gender inclusion and equity. We believe that it is critical that we all be more intentional about including all women, more specifically, women of all colors.
