5 Years of Impact
For the past five years, I have led this organization while working full-time and raising a child, experiencing firsthand the barriers our candidates face. Whether it’s fundraising, managing a campaign, or making their voices heard in a system that often overlooks parents, our candidates have shown extraordinary resilience. That’s why Moms in Office exists: to ensure they have the financial resources, strategic support, and community behind them to succeed.
—Simona Grace
When I founded Moms in Office in 2019, I knew firsthand the challenges that moms and parents face when stepping up to lead. Running for office is never easy—but for moms, it means balancing a campaign with work, caregiving, and the daily responsibilities of raising a family.
