  • "As New Mexico's first female Lt. Governor, I have a special appreciation for the work that Emerge New Mexico
    does to inspire, recruit and train the next generation of Democratic women to lead our communities."

    Diane Denish
    Lt. Governor, New Mexico

    Emerge New Mexico is the premier training program for Democratic women. We inspire women to run and we hone their skills to win.  Our goal is clear: to increase the number of Democratic women in public office.

What Is Emerge?

Emerge New Mexico is a political leadership training program for Democratic women in the state.  Emerge New Mexico is part of Emerge America, a national movement to address the under-representation of women in office at the local, state, and federal level.

The Emerge mission is to identify, educate, and inspire Democratic women who want to pursue a career in politics at the local and state level in New Mexico.

We are dedicated to making a long-term investment in these future leaders by developing their political and media skills, expanding their knowledge of local issues, and connecting them with mentors.

The Emerge model was originally founded in 2002 by a group of Bay Area Democratic women who passionately believe that we need a larger representation of women in public office at every level, currently, Emerge is the only organization in New Mexico and one of only two in the country that provides women with the comprehensive training they need to achieve their political aspirations.

Emerge was founded to fill this vacuum, not just in New Mexico, but across the country, and to create a legion of Democratic women leaders for generations to come.
