As a non-profit, non-partisan organization, NFWL does not take ideological positions on public policy issues, but rather serves as a forum for women legislators to be empowered through information and experience.

The NFWL Annual Conference is a national forum designed to encourage the building of alliances among elected women, industry leaders, and issue experts.

The conference fosters a safe environment for sharing ideas, discussing current events, and learning about new initiatives and programs through plenary sessions, workshops, roundtables and policy committees.

The goal of the annual conference is to intellectually equip elected women to mold public opinion and prepare for legislative debate.

Presentations throughout the conference offer elected women new perspectives and innovative ideas that may inevitably lead to policy resolutions and legislation in their respective states.
