Student Membership

The League is the ideal organization for both the experienced politico and the interested novice looking to expand their skills and experience leadership opportunities. We actively seek student members looking to begin their lifelong role inspiring participatory democracy. 

We embrace the new perspectives that come to us from all genders, generations and cultures. We are a non-partisan, inclusive, grassroots organization. Our leaders are generous mentors and seasoned professionals. We are here to offer guidance and support while we hope you will inspire us to better communicate with the next generation of newly enfranchised voters.

Student members 16 years and older are voting LWV members. We welcome your energy,  your talents and your full engagement at all levels of our organization.
