About Us
Forum NYC is a network of women who prioritize civic engagement, political participation, and expanding community through shared dialogue. We gather in person regularly for discussions with elected officials, candidates, and thought leaders from the non-profit, corporate, and government sectors.
Our participants span diverse backgrounds, industries, ages, and perspectives. What unites us is a shared commitment to strengthening democratic participation through collective learning, political involvement, and civic engagement. We believe that women's voices and wisdom must be prioritized, that respectful discourse is the only path forward, and that conversations flow better around a shared meal.
​
Unlike professional groups that focus on career advancement or social groups that gather the like-minded, we are building a group of women connected through a shared curiosity and desire to understand and shape the world around them, starting right here in NYC.​​​​
