Meet the Committees
Meet the Committees
The WiD Steering Committee is comprised of volunteer executive officers and subcommittees of members who contribute directly to the growth and success of WiD by developing programming that aligns with the organization’s mission and goals and expanding our network of diverse, dynamic women.
The Board of Directors meets monthly — all WiD members are welcome to attend the meeting — and committee members attend their sub-committee meeting each month. New and current members are encouraged to get involved and join one of the following committees that interests you, whether you already have experience in that area or want to learn more.
Steering Sub-committees
- The Events Committee handles all of the logistics of planning and implementing live, engaging programming that supports the goals of WiD and has a multidisciplinary appeal within the design community.
- The Education Committee designs a curriculum tailored specifically to the needs and interests of our members — women in the design and build industries — including professional development workshops and seminars.
- The Networking Committee provides opportunities to build relationships with industry professionals through social activities in traditional and non-traditional settings, highlighting the value of providing alternative environments for cross-disciplinary colleagues and friends to connect.
- The Outreach Committee initiates and develops partnerships with local and national organizations and schools that provide additional opportunities for WiD members to get involved with our communities through volunteerism, fundraising, mentoring, and visioning programs.
- The Communications Committee maintains the WiD brand, ensuring all digital, email, and visual communications through our website, marketing, social media, and events are current, consistent, and professional.
- The Membership Committee engages with new and prospective members and connects them with their interests within WiD.
