Democratic women invited to second HCFDW meeting

Submitted

Democratic women from across Hamilton County are invited to attend the second meeting of the Hamilton County Federation of Democratic Women (HCFDW) at 1 p.m. Sunday, April 26.

The meeting marks the launch of a new caucus dedicated to educating, energizing, and empowering Democratic women while expanding civic engagement and leadership opportunities across the county.

As Democratic women across Indiana mobilize ahead of an important election cycle, the HCFDW aims to connect women who want to become more involved in local politics, support Democratic candidates, and build a stronger pipeline of women leaders in the party and public office.

This meeting will include a panel discussion featuring Democratic women leaders from three different levels of local government: State Rep. Victoria Garcia Wilburn, Former Fishers City Councilor Crystal Neumann, and Carmel Clay School Board Member Kristina Wheeler.

The aim is to help attendees better understand how these positions function individually and as part of a whole.

“We hope women will not only see how they can assist in bringing vital issues that matter to the forefront of their governing bodies, but also envision how each of them is valuable to the process of democracy,” Party Communications Chair Libby Hogan said.

Organizers encourage women to come ready with their burning questions.

All Democratic women in Hamilton County, whether longtime volunteers, new activists, or those simply interested in learning more, are encouraged to attend, meet fellow community members, and help build this new organization together.
