OUR MISSION AND ROLES
The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan political organization. Our mission and vision is to Empower Voters and Defend Democracy. We envision a democracy where every person has the desire, the right, the knowledge and the confidence to participate. We do not support or oppose any political party or candidate.
The League of Women Voters has two distinct roles.
●Voter Education: we present nonpartisan information about elections, the voting process, and issues.
●Action/Advocacy: we are nonpartisan, but, after study of the issue and member agreement, we use our policy positions to advocate for or against particular policies in the public interest.
To conduct our voter education activities, we use funds from the League of Women Voters of Arizona 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.
Our Mission, Vision,Value and Diversity guide our activities.
