League of Women Voters
About

Mission of the League - The League of Women Voters, (LWVCC), a nonpartisan political organization, encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.  

 

Description/Programs- The League of Women Voters of Carteret County is a nonpartisan political organization that has been serving the citizens of Carteret County since 1996 and has been a strong influence both in voter education and advocacy ever since. The LWVCC 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 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. Examples of these programs would be our Voter Registration Drives and our Candidate Forums.

Includes Vote411.org: the US Leagues one stop nonpartisan voting and elections website. This website has everything you need to know about voting and elections.

line-height:14.7pt">Action/Advocacy: we are also nonpartisan, but, after study, we use our positions to advocate for or against specific policies in the public interest. Examples of these programs would be public forums on key issues of importance to the community such as environmental issues and access to health care for individuals with mental health illness.

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.

Your continued support is appreciated by our team of 50+ women and those we help.
