Making it Possible

NEW Leadership Ohio has been developed in partnership with the NEW Leadership Development Network established by the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University.

Private funding for NEW Leadership allows the program to remain free of charge to all of the participants. Seed funding for the NEW Leadership Program was provided by a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation in 2002. Since then, NEW Leadership has been funded with gifts from Barbara Fergus, the Ohio Telecom Association, American Electric Power, and two grants from the Women's Fund of Central Ohio.
