MISSION STATEMENT:

We envision a democracy where all Thurston County
community members have the desire, the right, the
knowledge, and the confidence to participate equitably
in public life.

OUR HISTORY

It is part of the League of Women Voters of the United States, as well as the League of Women Voters of Washington State, both of which date back to 1920. Members are simultaneously members of the local, state, and national Leagues.
