The LWVNE and the local Leagues offer many ways to get involved. You can join a local League if you live in Hastings, Lincoln, Greater Omaha or Seward. Local Leagues offer many activities and programs. If you live in other Nebraska communities, you can be a member-at-large of the state League. We encourage all members to be involved by serving on state committees.
Local Leagues offer opportunities to become involved in voter registration, candidate forums, Dine & Discuss and Lunch & Learn programs, book clubs, production of voter guides and much more.
MEMBERS-AT-LARGE are located throughout the state. As a MEMBER-AT-LARGE, you have the opportunity to join state committees and participate in statewide activities such as the annual Legislative Day in Lincoln. The LWVNE also provides support to develop new local Leagues in your area.
We encourage all members to join state committees covering various policy areas. These committees review legislation and plan action on a statewide level.

The Legislative sessions offer many opportunities to get involved and take action. You can get off the sidelines and effect change.
