What We Do
What We Do
The League of Women Voters of Cortland County (LWVCC) is a non-partisan political organization encouraging informed and active participation in government. We influence public policy through education and advocacy.
Since the 1950s, the League has been active in the Cortland community. It continues to have two separate and distinct roles: Voter Services/Citizen Education and Action/Advocacy.
Within the area of Voter Service/Citizen Education, the league presents nonpartisan information about elections, the voting process, and issues. We register voters and inform voters when and where to vote.
Within the area of Action/Advocacy, the league studies issues, develops nonpartisan positions and then advocates for or against particular policies in the public interest. We collaborate with other nonpartisan organizations with similar goals.
