The LCWINS Database helps our community advance gender parity in senior national security and foreign policy leadership. Its information helps our team support the consideration of gender-balanced slates for key administration positions and respond to requests for expertise from the media, conference organizers, and recruiters from the pubic and private sectors.

 

As with everything at LCWINS, this project is bipartisan. We aim to help both major parties prepare to govern effectively by identifying women ready and eager to serve. You will be asked to share your preference for service in a Democratic and/or Republican administration, to serve under a specific (but unnamed) candidate only, or to opt out of public service and participate in all other activities aside from political appointments. 

 

The LCWINS Database is a private resource.  By creating a profile, you consent to its use for referrals by LCWINS staff for employment opportunities, public commentary, and expertise referrals.  We will not refer any participants to presidential campaign staff until Fall 2024 and only after we ask participants to confirm their preferences one final time.

 

With this resource, LCWINS advocates for all women—not specific women. We cannot guarantee placements, but we look forward to supporting those selected and championing all of your work to strengthen U.S. national security and foreign policy.

 

Thank you for your interest and willingness to serve.
