Welcome to our web site

Welcome to the web site of the League of Women Voters of Alameda, California. Established in 1920, the League of Women Voters is a national,grassroots, nonpartisan, political organization. Its members -- men and women -- are committed to making democracy work.
The League of Women Voters of Alameda is a member of The League of Women Voters (LWV) of the United States. Like its sister leagues throughout the nation, its mission is to encourage the informed and active participation of citizens in government and to influence public policy through education and advocacy. Our advocacy reflects the consensus of our members reached after engaging in thorough study and discussion of selected issues.
The LWV of Alameda meets regularly and organizes community events throughout the year. We conduct meetings on issues of interest to Alameda. The public is invited to attend our meetings. Please check our calendar of events on this website for the schedule and locations.
The League offers several voter services, including voter registration campaigns, voter education materials, such as Pros & Cons of state and local ballot measures. The League also assists with mock elections in the schools and provides speakers to local groups, and sponsors candidates' meetings.
We look forward to seeing you join in our efforts.
