Michigan Women Mission and Vision

Why Women?

Women in Michigan are eager to positively impact their communities but often feel powerless to do so. Barriers such as a lack of clear guidance, declining local news, and reluctance to speak out can leave many feeling disconnected from the decisions shaping their lives. They crave a trusted community where they can share knowledge, amplify their voices, and take collective action to drive change.

We focus on women because they play a vital role in shaping strong, connected communities. Historically, women have been catalysts for progress, fostering collaboration, understanding, and resilience in the face of challenges.

By creating a space specifically designed for women, we provide an environment where they can freely share ideas, ask questions, and support one another without fear of judgment or being overshadowed. This focus allows women to connect over shared experiences, build confidence, and develop solutions that reflect their unique perspectives and priorities.

While we prioritize uplifting women, we believe community progress thrives on inclusivity. We welcome anyone—regardless of gender—who shares our vision for a stronger, more connected Michigan.

By focusing on women’s voices, we strengthen the collective power of all community members to drive meaningful change together.

Our Story

Founded by Krista Moon, a Saginaw native passionate about community engagement, Michigan Women was born out of a need to connect, inform, and empower women across the state.

Women often face unique challenges in civic engagement, from lack of representation to feeling disconnected from decision-making processes. Michigan Women provides a space to bridge those gaps, creating opportunities for women to lead, advocate, and collaborate for a brighter future.
