Since 1920, The League of Women Voters has stood for freedom: freedom to vote, freedom to understand the issues, to serve and be served, no matter how rich or how poor. Our mission is to encourage the informed, active participation of citizens in government.
Hot Topics are monthly luncheons at a local restaurant that focus on political, social and environmental topics important to Seminole County citizens. Luncheons may feature individual speakers, a panel of experts or candidates during an election year. Luncheons are open to the public, but there is a charge to attend.
Forums are held periodically to explore issues in more depth. Events can consist of panels of experts or activists discussing different sides of controversial subjects. Events are free and open to the public.
Leaguers and friends had a great time at our wine and cheese event -- and we brought in a chunk of changey too! Click the photo below to see photos of the event.
