The Institute for Economic Empowerment of Women ( IEEW ) is a 501 ( c ) profit empowering women to grow their businesses, pursue greater entrepreneurial ventures, and become more active public policy advocates. The Institute accomplishes this mission by focusing on education, mentorship, and coaching women in the United States and abroad who are seeking to acquire entrepreneurial skills to help start and grow a business. Empowering Women Public policy affects the bottom line of all businesses, but especially small business in the form of government structure, taxes, city, state and federal rules governing business, etc. The list is endless. Empowering Women is a one-day training designed to teach women business owners the importance of becoming involved in public policy, why it is important to know your elected officials before you need them, how to become a resource to your elected officials, and to teach the steps necessary to accomplish this goal.

PEACE THROUGH BUSINESS IEEW believes that when women are allowed to participate equally and fully in business, then that country has a much greater capacity for economic stability and peace. Peace through Business trains women entrepreneurs in war torn countries in basic business practices, then goes a step further by providing mentorship with American women business owners. These courageous women spend 3 weeks in class learning business basics through a entrepreneurial University, then take that information and transfers it into 'real' life through mentorship. It is incumbent upon these women to then 'pay forward' their education to other women in their country to spread the light of entrepreneurship and democracy.
