Picture
OUR VISION
The goal of the League of Women Voters is to empower citizens to shape better communities worldwide.
​
​The League of Women Voters of the United States is strictly nonpartisan; it neither supports nor opposes candidates for office at any level of government. At the same time, the League is wholeheartedly political and works to influence policy through advocacy. It is the original grassroots citizen network, directed by the consensus of its members nationwide.

OUR ROLE
​
The League of Women Voters has two separate and distinct roles.
  • Voters Service/Citizen Education: We present unbiased nonpartisan information about elections, the voting process, and issues.
  • Action/Advocacy We are nonpartisan, but, after study, we use our positions to advocate for or against particular policies in the public interest.
To conduct our voter service and citizen education activities, we use funds from the League of Women Voters Education Fund, which is a 501(c)(3) corporation, a nonprofit educational organization. The League of Women Voters, a membership organization, conducts action and advocacy and is a nonprofit 501(c)(4) corporation.

OUR NON-PARTISAN POLICY
The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan political membership organization, which acts after study and member agreement to achieve solutions in the public interest on key community issues at all government levels;  builds citizen participation in the democratic process; and engages communities in promoting positive solutions to public policy issues through education and advocacy.

The League of Women Voters Education Fund is a nonpartisan public policy educational organization, which builds citizen participation in the democratic process; studies key community issues at all government levels in an unbiased manner; and enables people to seek positive solutions to public policy issues through education and conflict management.
