The League of Women Voters of Seattle-King County is sponsoring three Great Decisions Discussion Groups in Seattle, Issaquah, and Mercer Island, beginning in February. For full details click here.

"Great Decisions" is a national civic-education program and publication of the non-partisan, non-profit Foreign Policy Association, dedicated to inspiring the American public to learn more about the world. Founded in 1918, FPA serves as a catalyst for developing awareness and understanding of global issues, and encourages citizens to participate in the foreign policy process.

We are currently preparing the 2012 TRY and expect it to be released at the end of January. Check back for updates!

They Represent You (TRY), a free service of the LWV, has been used by tens of thousands of citizen activists throughout the state to identify and contact their representatives. We have plenty of 2011 TRY copies still available at our office at 1620 18th Ave. Suite 101, Seattle. (click here for map and directions) We welcome help in distributing our directories to libraries, schools, post offices and other public places. Our office hours are Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We will send up to 3 copies free of charge. Please contact us at 206-329-4848 or info@seattlelwv.org with any questions.

The TRY wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of our donors. Any amount you can give to help us cover the cost will be greatly appreciated. Your gift to the LWVS-KC Education Fund is tax deductible as a charitable contribution.
