Local League Liaisons
A key goal of the LWVIL Member Services Committee is to help forge
closer bonds between LWVIL and local Leagues and facilitate better
inter-League communications.
Local Leagues have been grouped in geographical clusters, each of
which will be headed by a member of the LWVIL Member Services Committee.
For Leagues in the Chicago Metropolitan area that person is Mary Kubasak; for Northwestern Illinois plus DuPage and Kane Counties,
Paula Ekstrom; and for Downstate, Joni Painter.
Within these three regions the local Leagues have been grouped
in clusters of two to six, and a Local League Liaison has been
assigned to each cluster. The liaisons are experienced Leaguers
who have volunteered to contact the Leagues in their cluster three
times a year. They will inquire about the activities of their assigned Leagues
and offer their guidance and assistance, if desired.
For the name and contact information of the Local League Liaison
assigned to your League, consult the President's Handbook or phone
the LWVIL office.
Membership Recruitment Initiative
Honor Your League's Long-time Members
Leagues are encouraged to honor their members who have been
with the organization for 50 years or more. Upon request,
the LWVUS will issue a certificate to each of these members.
The certificate can be sent directly to the member or to the
League's leadership for a formal presentation. Please e-mail
requests for 50-year certificates to Betty Taira.
