CMN Learn About It: U.S. Senate/Attorney General
September 15, 2022 at 7:00 am to 7:45 am CDT
Welcome to our Civic Mentorship Network “Learn About It” meetings!
U.S. Senate and State Attorney General: Heidi Heitkamp
Women belong in leadership positions, including you. We at 100 Rural Women want to join you in your journey as you pursue public service positions. Specifically, providing you with the necessary resources for support. And the most valuable resources are the very women who are making a difference in their communities. Thus, at these meetings, women from various public service backgrounds will discuss their paths to leadership and the barriers they’ve overcome. Our goal is to facilitate a mentorship environment that provides you with encouragement and support in your own leadership journey.
We will be hosting Heidi Heitkamp on Thursday, September 15th at 7 AM CT. Heidi is a former U.S. Senator and State Attorney General. Heidi actively serves as a champion for the North Dakotan people. As the Attorney General, she is remembered for her leadership in the state’s legal efforts to seek damages from tobacco companies. In a similar fashion, Heidi tackled a number of welfare issues as a U.S. Senator. These issues include but are not limited to affordable health care and human trafficking. Now that Heidi no longer serves in the U.S. Senate or as Attorney General, she focuses a lot of her attention on the One Country Project. An organization founded by Heidi, it focuses on addressing the needs and concerns of rural America.
You’re invited to hear more from Heidi herself at this Civic Mentorship Network “Learn About It” meeting!
ABOUT THE CIVIC MENTORSHIP NETWORK
The Civic Mentorship Network is comprised of rural civic leaders who serve as mentors for new women who are pursuing public service and leadership positions. This network provides a coordinated method for aspiring leaders to make person-to-person connections that give access to resources that are valuable to enduring success. At 100 Rural Women, we find that success in recruiting more rural women to serve in public service leadership roles is essential to keeping our democracy strong.
