And we’re already making a powerful impact by leading change within Dane County, Wisconsin communities! To us, becoming a civic leader is all about understanding that local efforts have a global reach, and it all begins with creating local leadership opportunities that put women’s skills and passion to work right here in Dane County. If you’re interested in developing civic leadership skills while collaborating on important efforts with a group of like-minded women, you’re in the right place!

The Junior League is a Highly Respected Organization with an Extraordinary Legacy…

The Junior League of Madison is very proud of that historic reputation, but as society changes, we adapt and evolve. We strive to put our venerable values to work in modern ways; demonstrating our pride and perpetuating our legacy by serving as a powerful voice for action, justice and change throughout Dane County, Wisconsin. Together, we are focusing on member engagement, community collaboration, and leadership development.

With our revised three-year strategic plan in place, our Community Team is now tackling the difficult work of identifying top unmet needs in the Dane County area. This insight will drive our actions and goals in the coming years, but our current work will always evolve based on the needs of our community. We are committed to filling in the gaps for organizations that need both boots-on-ground volunteer support, as well as more strategic planning and financial support.
