Join the League

Who is eligible to join?

Membership in the League of Women Voters is open to all citizens (men and women) of voting age. Associate membership is open to young people and noncitizens.

Why should I join?

You will gain knowledge and experience through the study and discussion of timely and important topics. Through participation in League projects, you will contribute valuable service to the community. You will discover new interests, develop new skills and learn about crucial issues in your community. As you meet others in League who share your interests, you will make professional contacts and develop lasting friendships.

How much time does it take?

It's up to you! Many members choose to support the League only with their annual dues. Your membership alone gives us the political influence needed to build a voice for citizens and a force for change. We cover a broad spectrum of issues and concerns; you may choose to become involved in one or more of them by actively participating in a group study, or listening to a panel of experts at a meeting or just reading about them in one of our publications.

What do I get?

You automatically become a member of LWV Topeka-Shawnee County and LWV of the United States. You will receive their publications along with the newsletter from the Topeka-Shawnee County League of Women Voters called VOTER which is usually published 9 times each year . You will have the knowledge that you are adding your voice to a powerful force of members from all 50 states, Washington DC, the Virgin Islands, and Hong Kong.

It's easy! Print and fill out a form, then mail it with a check to us. Contact us by e-mail or at 785-232-5931 and ask Nancy Shaughnessy, Membership Director, for a membership packet to be mailed to you.
