Faith Winter considers herself an organizer regardless of title. She does this by bringing people together and lifting as you rise. She is currently a Colorado State Senator, a former State Representative, Mayor-Pro Tem and City Councilor. Faith champions paid family leave, addressing climate change and addressing sexual harassment. Faith originally ran for office when a State Senator told her she believed in her and she should run. Faith has tried to pay that forward by training and inviting women to run for office. She worked at The White House Project, was founding Executive Director of Emerge Colorado and is now the Training Director of VoteRunLead. When Faith isn't training people to run for office or governing she is camping and hiking with her family.
