ABOUT UCDW
OUR MISSION
Ulster County Democratic Women, or UCDW, is an independent political club and a Political Action Committee (PAC) that supports issues of importance to women's lives in Ulster County. Today -- more than ever -- we must defend our rights and take the lead in getting results for our families. The role of women, and the values we hold dear, must be essential to the Democratic Party and to our Country. We must be the change we know is needed. We meet on the second Tuesday evening of each month to provide a forum for the exchange of information and ideas among our members. We interview to endorse Democratic candidates ahead of general elections and strive to help our communities better understand the structure of government and how it can best work for us. We welcome women from every part of Ulster County and from every walk of life and constituency. Join us!
