WIF is proud of our joint work with The Black List to create gender parity and build sustainable careers through mentorship and opportunities for promising screenwriters of underrepresented genders. We are committed to changing the industry. WIF x The Black List Residency alum Sasha Perl-Raver shared, "I can honestly say that there is a direct line between when I got into the program and the career I have today. It is life-changing."
Founded in 1973 as Women In Film Los Angeles, WIF advocates for and advances the careers of women working in the screen industries—in front of and behind the camera, across all levels of experience—to achieve parity and transform culture.
We work to change culture through our distinguished programs, including mentoring, speaker and screening series, a production training program, writing labs, film finishing funds, legal aid, and an annual financing intensive. WIF advocates for gender parity through research, education, and media campaigns. And, we build a community centered around these goals, anchored by our signature events, including the WIF Annual Gala and Female Oscar Nominees Party, along with programs honoring the achievements of women in Hollywood, like the Legacy Series. Membership is open to all screen industry professionals.
