League of Women Voters of Metropolitan Columbus

The League of Women Voters of Metropolitan Columbus encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy. The League is where hands-on work to safeguard democracy leads to civic improvement. Men and women of all parties and political persuasions come together within the League of Women Voters for civil discourse about our nation’s and our community’s most pressing issues. The League is strictly nonpartisan; we neither support nor oppose candidates for office at any level of government. At the same time, the League is wholeheartedly political and works to influence policy through advocacy. We are the original grassroots citizen network, directed by the consensus of our members. Organized in three nesting layers (local, state, and national), the League offers members the chance to make a difference at any level of government. We hold free public forums on issues important to the community throughout the year. We also sponsor candidate forums throughout the metropolitan area prior to each election. Join us at an upcoming League meeting or forum to get involved in your community!
