Social Policy Committee

Social Policy Committee

 The Social Policy Committee was formed in the spring of 2019 and hit the ground running. Committee members study relevant social issues and pending social policy legislation, and they provide information to the public about these matters. All interested League members are invited to join! Your input and expertise are needed.  Meeting and contact information can be found at the bottom of this page.

This committee is a result of member interest in exploring topics of concern to Sussex County and those related to the positions of the League of Women Voters. In addition to regular committee meetings, they develop or sponsor public forums and League gatherings. Current topics include: 

  • Homelessness and Affordable Housing
  • Health Care Access and Availability
  • Early Childhood Education and the Child Care Crisis

Next Meeting

The next meeting of the Social Policy Committee will be held on Monday January 29th, from 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm in the Lewes Library Medium Meeting room. All members are welcome. If you would like to attend or would like more information on the committee, contact cristigillean [at] gmail.com (Cristi Gillean), the committee chair, for more information.
