Great American Write-In

• What we'll do
This year more than ever, Women For: Orange County, a non-partisan women's group, is pleased to present the 33rd Annual Great American Write-In. This free event is offered to the public every year to provide attendees with the means to influence policy decisions by writing letters to their legislators. It's also a great opportunity for participants to experience first-hand what informed citizen involvement in government is all about. More than 60 different organizations and advocacy groups will be represented with information regarding some of today’s most vital issues, including education, health care, human and civil rights and the environment. Attendees are invited to visit the various tables and then voice their opinions by writing letters to government and corporate decision-makers in the hopes of bringing about constructive change. There is no cost for this event; Women For: Orange County will supply the post cards, stationery, postage, refreshments and parking. Last year, almost 700 attendees generated over 4,400 letters and postcards. Please let us know you are coming by registering on Eventbrite. (Each person in your group should register separately.) Registration is also available at the door on the day of the event.
