Because of the depth of training the Junior League offers, our members are among the most effective and caring volunteers in the community. Members, both present and past, sit on numerous boards in Wichita Falls and bring with them the knowledge and leadership skills gained through JLWF.

How We Train Our Members

General Membership Meetings
Large group gatherings that often feature a training compoent covering topics such as communication skills, leadership, mental health, and more.

April Training Month

A focused month of diverse training sessions designed to support both foundational learning and continued leadership growth.

In-League Committees
Hands-on training comes through committee work. For example:

• Learn finance skills by serving with the Financial Vice President

• Gain media and communications experience through the Communications team

New Member Course
New members learn how the League operates through structured training led by the New Member Committee.

AJLI Training Opportunities
As part of the Association of Junior Leagues International (AJLI), JLWF members have access to premier training and networking, including:

• Fall & Winter Leadership Conferences

• Annual Conference

• Organizational Development Institutes (ODI)

• Webinars & Regional Meetings

These programs bring in top trainers and speakers (many of whom work with Fortune 500 companies) on topics like financial training, public speaking, parliamentary procedure, and member engagement.

Beyond JLWF

The impact of League membership reaches well beyond volunteer service. Members often find that their experience with JLWF serves as a catalyst for careers, philanthropic involvement, board leadership, and lasting community engagement.
