Throughout history women have played a critical role in the direction of our country. Since the election of the current Republican Administration we have seen women galvanized into political action. In Douglas County and throughout Nebraska we see women stepping up to run for elected offices and demand our voices be heard. We see women putting in the work to get our Progressive sisters elected. We managed campaigns, canvassed, raised donations, rallied, phone banked, and worked to educate our communities about our candidates. Beyond elections women play a consistent role in improving our communities through both Non-Profit Organizations, Grassroots Movements, and Charities.
The DCDP Constitution and Bylaws permit for County Caucuses to develop in order to better represent marginalized communities. The Women's County Caucus is currently working with and seeking recognition from the Douglas County Democratic Party. We aspire to unite, organize, and empower women, advocate for women’s rights, educate on women’s issues, work towards equal representation in elected offices, and grow the Democratic party. |
