Whether volunteering for the LWVAL or your Local League, you serve your community, increase voter engagement in Alabama, improve our elections, and protect our democracy.

LWVAL Volunteer Opportunities

There are often opportunities for local league members to plug into state work.   If any of these sound interesting, contact the state board member listed for more information.

Don't forget to contact your Local League to see what volunteer opportunities are available locally.
