The Hays County Women’s Political Caucus (HCWPC) is partnering up with the National Women’s Political Caucus (NWPC) to offer campaign training for women in Hays County who are interested in running for office.
These training sessions will be offered via Zoom on Jan. 15 and 29 and are designed for those interested in becoming candidates for elected office, campaign staff and campaign volunteers.
“This is a fantastic opportunity to get campaign training at a discounted rate, made available through an NWPC grant and support from Hays County Women's Political Caucus. HCWPC's mission is to support women candidates for elected office,” said Bobbie Garza-Hernandez, owner of Pink Consulting.
The training sessions will include nationally recognized speakers and campaign professionals including Donna Lent, President, NWPC
