About Us

The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, has fought since 1920 to improve our systems of government and impact public policies through citizen education and advocacy. The League's enduring vitality and resonance comes from its unique decentralized structure. The League is a grassroots organization, working at the national, state and local levels.

In response to the need for League members to work together on broad-reaching regional issues, local Leagues within Cuyahoga County consolidated into one large League in 2003, creating The League of Women Voters Cuyahoga Area. We have seven active local chapters within our League. They are located in Bay Village, Cleveland Heights-University Heights, Fairview Park, Hillcrest Area, Lakewood, Rocky River, and Westlake-North Olmsted. Members not affiliated with a chapter are members-at-large.

We are now poised to serve 48 communities within the county.* As new members join us we will expand our work into more of these communities. Already we have provided services such as Candidates' Nights to a number of Cuyahoga County suburban areas.

*Other municipalities in Cuyahoga County are part of two other local Leagues: Shaker Heights and Cleveland Area.
