Grant for LBJ Women’s Campaign School guarantees free tuition

In 2020, after two years of organizing, Amy Kroll, founder and executive director of the LBJ Women's Campaign School, welcomed the inaugural class to an eight-month program designed to give women the tools and training needed to campaign for public office. With eight graduates currently running in the Texas 2022 primaries, the program’s success in its first two years earned the support of valuable partners, including the Texas Woman’s University’s Center for Women in Politics and Public Policy. For the second year in a row, 50 accepted participants in the Campaign School’s third cohort will attend the program for free, thanks to an $87,500 grant from Texas Woman’s University.
