Who are the members?

Membership in the League of Women Voters, the most respected and effective grassroots organization in the country, is open to women and men of all ages.
Our members make a visible difference by serving as community leaders using their experience to create positive, lasting change in our communities.

Why should I join?

Through participation in League projects, you will

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

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. We always can use more help with one of our Committees such as Voter Services or our Observer Corps. See the Help Wanted page for specific suggestions.

What do I get?

You automatically become a member of LWV Delaware and LWV of the United States. You will receive their publications along with the newsletter from the Sussex County League of Women Voters called The Voter which is usually published 4 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.

How do I join?

It's easy! Print and fill out the form here, then mail it to us with your check. Contact us here to ask for a membership packet or for other questions.
