Empowering Voices

Women's Communications Boot Camp is an intensive training opportunity for any female Farm Bureau member interested in building skills needed to communicate about agriculture and for Farm Bureau. Currently, over 165 women have graduated from the program. Empowered program graduates are lending their voices and advocacy to connect with influencers at the local, state and national levels.

When passion for your livelihood meets leadership training and preparation, there is no limit to what opportunities are available. Farm Bureau not only teaches and trains you, they take you!
—  Sine Kerr, Arizona State Senator and Women’s Communications Boot Camp Graduate

Women's Boot Camp graduates use their training: 

  • by joining the Grassroots Outreach (GO) Team to positively influence elected federal legislators and create or act upon local media opportunities to support AFBF's policy work on behalf of farmers and ranchers;

  • by joining social media campaigns to share positive agricultural messages; and

  • by influencing agricultural customers (students, general consumers, lawmakers, etc.) in their planning and implementing of Our Food Link activities and events.
