Join a Committee or Caucus

Our volunteers help drive the work that needs to get done for Democrats to win elections.

Local parties are driven by standing committees and caucuses, and the Democratic Party of Washington County is no exception. Volunteers donate their time and skills to help the Washington County Democrats in a specific area of need. Each committee and caucus has a standing chairperson who serves as a liaison between the committee volunteers and the rest of the Washington County Democrats leadership. Committees have a wide range of interests and goals, from a focus on outreach and communication, to assisting in the office, to assuring we have the technology in place to manage our local Party work.

We hope you find a committee or caucus that speaks to you and what you love to do.

To find out more about any of the committees below, contact the chair of each committee via email. Committee Chairs are always looking for new volunteers and would love to hear from you!
