Earlier in the year, a Go Run Iron Range conference was held to gather and encourage women interested in political leadership and gave them basic training on how to conduct local and broader campaigns. The effort was an extension of the White House Project. Efforts to expand female leadership on the Iron Range continue and the Go Run initiative will hold some follow-up activities.
