We’re Empowering the Next Great Civic Leaders

And we’re already making a powerful impact by leading change within the High Point community! 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 High Point. 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

And our league is very proud of that historic reputation, but as society changes, we adapt and evolve. 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 High Point. We are working to empower our members to work toward improving health outcomes and disparities in women and children. We are committing to work that supports women’s health, children’s health, substance abuse prevention, mental health, and environmental protection. Women will lead this important initiative. Will you be one of them?

Join the movement dedicated to creating change, empowering leaders, and impacting the community.
