League of Women Voters of the La Crosse Area
In League, Program means the issues that we choose for concerted study, education and action at local, state and national levels. The Program Planning process is part of what makes the League a grassroots organization; each League member has the opportunity to influence the selection of issues where the local, state, and national League will focus time, talent and money. Program can include both education and action.”
