Monthly Community Calls
To continue fostering community and cross learning opportunities, LWVUS will be convening monthly community calls!
Each month the national office is inviting League members to convene to strengthen our community and solidarity! We want to continue to foster spaces for cross-learning and relationship building among leagues. Starting in 2021, all Community Calls will take place from 5-6pm ET on the last Tuesday of each month.
