Our Story

Originally established as the Loudoun Commission on Women and Girls in 2017, our vision is that every Loudoun County woman and girl will have equitable opportunities to achieve personal and professional growth. To enhance our ability to best serve our community, in 2021, we rebranded as the Loudoun Coalition on Women and Girls, elected a board of directors and set a strategic direction for the organization.

LCWAG is a nonpartisan, nonpolitical organization that promotes leadership development and fosters an inclusive community for women and girls through education, collaboration and empowerment.
