2024 BOOTCAMPS

Getting to Know the League of Women Voters of Arizona


We have organized a series of workshops on Zoom to provide all League members with a better understanding of the work at the State and National levels. As the National, State, and Local leagues continue the transformation journey started in 2019, 2024 and 2025 will be pivotal years for this transformation and transition.

 

In these challenging times, it is crucial to strengthen our leagues as we respond to unprecedented attacks on our democracy and fight for fair and free elections. Join us as we grow and learn together about the League’s strategies, processes, and protocols to ensure our success in advancing the League's mission of empowering voters and defending democracy.
