Our Mission

Women’s Lead Club provides support, empowerment, education, resources, and opportunities to facilitate and encourage women’s rock climbing both indoors and outside. 

We acknowledge the limitations in the language we’re using as a “women’s” club and in an attempt to address how important inclusivity is in the climbing community; When we say women we mean, all kinds:  AFAB, woman-identified people, trans women, gender-non conforming and gender-expansive. While we are addressing issues pertaining to “women” in climbing we support the mission of clubs like Queer Climbing Club.

“Women’s lead club is security. This club gave me the guarantee that especially outdoor climbing will always be accessible. What once was precariously oriented around romantic relationships, is now centered around women’s empowerment.”
