Our Mission
The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan political organization that encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.
We do not support or oppose any candidates for office or political parties.
We encourage all citizens to vote and we hold voter registration drives. We sponsor candidate forums, and meet & greet events to help voters educate themselves. We protect the right to vote against threats and ensure that every vote is counted.
The members and leaders of the League of Women Voters work on key issues that matter to American voters on a local, state, and national level.
Reasons to Join
* Meet other informed citizens.
* Promote good government and help build strong local communities.
* Help organize and participate in events to learn and lead
* Shape issues that are important to you and your family.
* Help empower voters to exercise their rights.

Volunteer Opportunities!
The Communication & Media Committee is looking for members who would like to write, research, and/or report on various committee actions, League events, and learning opportunities. Looking forward we hope to expand our
presence in various media outlets. The spring 2024 election is extremely important, so we are looking for energetic volunteers to promote education and information to the public.
