In the wake of the 2016 presidential election, a group of us – friends and strangers – came together to share ideas. Our common concerns and areas of interest were potent. In Felice Garcia’s living room, energized by the possibilities for real change, committed and strategizing to be it, NastyWomenNM made its noisy entry into the world.
From the onset, our decisions have been informed by a simple mission: Through ongoing civic engagement, to create a more just, inclusive and environmentally sustainable New Mexico by women organizing at the grassroots level. We are passionate in our belief that good candidates and informed voters are key to getting out the vote, and that GOTV is the vehicle for creating the New Mexico we deserve.
We are always engaged in our own initiatives and support the work of many other organizations. Please explore our website to learn how you too can make a difference.
