Membership in the Women’s Forum of New York is by invitation only. Women of accomplishment, influence, and impact are nominated by a current member

Candidates are recognized leaders in their fields; proactive in the advancement of women; involved in civic, nonprofit and professional associations; and committed to engaging with the Forum. We seek a diverse membership, reflecting the breadth of industry, age and race/ethnicity of women leaders in the New York area.

Candidates are formally reviewed by the Membership Committee and approved by the Board of Directors before being invited to join. The Membership Committee hosts regularly scheduled breakfasts where candidates meet each other and learn more about the Forum.
