Changing the Story for Women. Changing the State for Nevadans.

For more than 40 years, Nevada Women’s Fund (NWF) has proven that investing in women changes lives, workplaces, and communities across Nevada. Through sustained commitment to women’s education, workforce advancement, leadership visibility, and employer engagement, NWF has helped thousands of women access opportunities once out of reach.

When Women Rise, Nevada Rises builds on this legacy by applying expanded, innovative narrative strategies to address long-standing challenges that continue to limit women's opportunities and constraints Nevada’s economic potential. These challenges include persistent underrepresentation of women in higher-wage and core industries, entrenched wage inequities, limited visibility of women’s leadership—particularly in rural communities—and outdated assumptions about who belongs in Nevada’s workforce and how economic value is defined. Recognizing that sustainable progress requires more than effective programs and sound policies, this work focuses on the fundamental beliefs and narratives that shape opportunity, access, and advancement. It represents a bold evolution of NWF’s impact, leveraging credibility earned over four decades to reshape belief systems that have suppressed women’s economic participation and, in doing so, have limited Nevada’s ability to fully compete, grow, and thrive.


Our strategy to shift Nevada’s narrative about women in the workplace is intentionally grounded in the state’s three dominant industries: mining, manufacturing, and agriculture. Through a statewide public awareness campaign, industry partnerships and caring our existing and proven programs, community events, and trusted resources, we can change the conversation and open doors for more women.
