Welcome to the New York State Young Democrats Women's Caucus web site. The Women's Caucus seeks to encourage young Democratic women to enter the field of politics and government. The Caucus also gives them the skills and networking opportunities to help prepare them to be run for public office. We work closely with The Eleanor Roosevelt Legacy Project, chaired by former New York State Democratic Committee Chairwoman Judith Hope. We also are supported by Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. We have some exciting events planned for the future. Please email your local women's caucus rep, or myself for further information.
