Letter to the Editor
We at the Sonoma County League of Women voters heartily agree with your editorial on civics. When we were founded in 1920, the goal was to educate women on how to be an informed voter and we continue this work today. Specifically, we are going into high schools to present voting history and education as well as registering seniors to vote in the next election. The Youth vote has been increasing in Sonoma County over the last eight years. We also can provide a resource guide for teachers (or parents) on ways to inform children about civics and the value of becoming an engaged citizen.
