About the League

What is our mission? How are we structured? What is our history?

Our Mission and Roles

  • The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan political organization encouraging informed and active participation in government. It influences public policy through education and advocacy. We never support or oppose any political party or candidate.
  • The League of Women Voters has two separate and distinct roles.
    • · Voters Service/Citizen Education: we present unbiased nonpartisan information about elections, the voting process, and issues.
    • · Action/Advocacy: we are also nonpartisan, but, after study, we use our positions to advocate for or against particular policies in the public interest.
  • To conduct our voter service and citizen education activities, we use funds from the League of Women Voters Citizen Education Foundation, which is a 501(c)(3) corporation, a nonprofit educational organization. The League of Women Voters of Charlotte-Mecklenburg, a membership organization, conducts action and advocacy on important issues.
  • Our Vision, Beliefs, and Intentions guide our activities.
