Utah Women Leading Government (UTWLG) is dedicated to empowering women in government by promoting leadership development, providing support for career growth, and cultivating strong professional networks. Through mentorship, education, collaboration, and advocacy, we strive to equip women with the skills and connections needed to lead and thrive in public service.

Welcome

Utah Women Leading Government (UTWLG) was created when several women recognized the need for women-focused professional development and networking during a Utah City/County Management Association conference. Since then, UTWLG continues to grow and enhance the careers and profession for women in local government management.

Members participate in virtual events and in-person events each quarter. Due to the holidays, UTWLG does not meet in December.
