We’re Empowering the Next Great Civic Leaders…

And we’re already making a powerful impact by leading change within Wilmington communities! To us, becoming a civic leader is all about understanding that local efforts have a global reach, and it all begins with creating local leadership opportunities that put women’s skills and passion to work right here in Delaware. If you’re interested in developing civic leadership skills while collaborating on important efforts with a group of like-minded women, you’re in the right place!

The Junior League is a Highly Respected Organization with an Extraordinary Legacy…

We strive to put our venerable values to work in modern ways; demonstrating our pride and perpetuating our legacy by serving as a powerful voice for action, justice and change throughout Wilmington and Delaware. Together, we are women working to empower our members to build better communities. Will you be one of them?
