Chartered in 1948, the League of Women Voters of the Fairfax Area encourages informed and active participation in government, promotes greater understanding of public policy issues, and influences policy through education and advocacy.

Our voter education and registration efforts include outreach at

• community events

• high schools & universities

• senior citizen residences

• food banks

• detention centers

We believe the freedom to vote is a nonpartisan issue and that citizen participation in elections is essential to a healthy democracy.
