NWPC LA WESTSIDE
NWPC LA Westside is a chapter of the National Women's Political Caucus. Founded in 1971, NWPC recruits, trains, and supports pro-choice women candidates for elected and appointed offices at all levels of government.
Our chapter has a specific focus on supporting pro-choice women seeking elected or appointed positions within the governments that fall within our region: the cities of Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Culver City, Santa Monica, and Malibu, as well as unincorporated parts of Los Angeles County. Within our region, our chapter endorses for City Council districts, School Board, and other boards and local office - as well as providing support for those State and City-wide endorsed candidates.
All endorsements for Congress, State Assembly, and State Senate are handed by NWPC California. The Los Angeles Coordinating Council endorses on Mayor, Board of Supervisors, and District Attorney, among others.
​
A membership with NWPC is membership in all levels (local, state, national) of Caucus activity. Join us today!
