The League of Women Voters of Indiana

What The League of Women Voters of Indiana does

The League of Women Voters of Indiana (LWVIN) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit civic organization founded in 1920 as a state affiliate of the League of Women Voters of the United States (LWVUS). Headquartered at 1500 N Delaware Street in Indianapolis with 1-10 paid staff, LWVIN operates through a federated network of 23 local leagues across Indiana plus a member-at-large tier, providing voter education, election information, candidate forums, legislative advocacy, and civic engagement programs to Indiana citizens. Core programmatic products include VOTE411 (a national voter information platform with Indiana-specific candidate and polling location data), the Citizens' Handbook (a multilingual civic education resource in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole), the Observer Corps (a volunteer program that monitors public agency meetings), an interactive League Finder tool, and the LWV Member Portal for membership management across local, state, and national tiers. The underlying technology stack is the ClubExpress website/content management platform and the nationally maintained VOTE411 system; no proprietary AI or automation infrastructure is disclosed.

LWVIN's revenue model is membership- and donation-driven: members join through their nearest local league, with annual dues automatically including state and national affiliations (reference pricing at Bloomington-Monroe County: $60 individual, $85 household, $0 student/life member), and the organization separately accepts donations and an Education Fund for programmatic work. The go-to-market is community-led — growth comes from local league recruitment, civic events, candidate forums, word-of-mouth, and active participation in at least 14 coalitions spanning redistricting (All IN for Democracy), election protection (Election Protection Coalition), reproductive rights (Indiana Reproductive Health and Access Coalition), public education (Indiana Coalition for Public Education), environmental advocacy (Hoosier Environmental Council, Indiana Conservation Alliance), human services (Indiana Coalition for Human Services), and civic health (Indiana Civics Coalition with the Indiana Bar Foundation). LWVIN maintains state-level operational autonomy while affiliated with LWVUS, governed by a board of directors under state president Linda K. Hanson.
