Iberia

Description

The League of Women Voters of Iberia (LWVI) was organized in 2023. The Chapter’s three-pronged focus is voter registration and education, outreach to the formerly incarcerated, and young voters. In its first yea, LWVI Held over a dozen voter registration events, including partnering with Iberia Parish Library on National Voter Registration Day and partnering with A New Chapter PUSH on transportation to the polls. LWVI also worked to gain community awareness by distributing “Y’ALL VOTE” hand fans and placing election information yard signs around the parish. We pride ourselves on our diversity, and the ages of our members range from 18 to 93.

Members who join the League of Women Voters of Iberia are also members of the League of Women Voters of Louisiana and the League of Women Voters of the United States.
