Local Leagues. Volunteering. No Time.

LWVNH Local Leagues

Local Leagues are small groups of League members from specific New Hampshire regions, cities or towns. Local League meetings take place within, and focus on policy and governmental issues concerning, the local area. Voter education and voter service efforts will also generally serve the citizens of that region, city or town. However, members may join any unit they like and are not restricted to their geographical region.
Meetings are calendared between September and June. They are intended to increase members' knowledge about policy and governmental issues, arrive at League positions on policy, and determine what courses of action are needed to put these policies in effect.
More information about League of Women Voters of New Hampshire Units can be found here. Information on League of Women Voters of New Hampshire membership, a precursor to League of Women Voters of New Hampshire Unit involvement, can be found here.

Volunteer Opportunities

There are many avenues of participating in League activities. Possibilities range from working on voter service projects, administering events, developing publications, helping in the League office, fundraising, writing letters to legislators, making phone calls, or even working on a web page. There is something for everyone! Once you become a member, you will learn of specific opportunities through your local League or the New Hampshire Voter, the newsletter of the League of Women Voters of New Hampshire.

No Time?

The League of Women Voters of New Hampshire maintains a guilt-free policy for its members. You can join and participate as much, or as little, as you like. Many active members were inactive for years, then increased their participation as their lives changed.
