JWI Alumnae Networks
JWI Women's Impact Networks are communities of women looking to connect and learn from one another.

Young Women's Impact Network
JWI’s Young Women’s Impact Network, funded in part by the Sondra D. Bender Community Leadership Institute, brings together professional women in their 20s and 30s to grow as leaders in their workplaces, their communities and their personal lives. JWI welcomes, embraces, affirms, and invests in women of every race, culture, gender identity, sexual orientation, and ability. Building on JWI's financial literacy expertise and commitment to preventing domestic violence, monthly Network programs include economic security and healthy relationship offerings. And of course they have fun with events like happy hour, baking workshops, and group exercise. At the heart of the Network is a group of amazing young women becoming their best selves with a network of friends. Learn more
