WOMEN AND MINORITIES OUTREACH SOCIAL
We are making some real changes here in DuPage and one that we are particularly excited about is the increased inclusion of women and minorities as active participants in DPDC. Not only that but a large percentage of those elected in 2012 were women!! Minority citizens also need the chance to represent and be represented in DuPage so we must continue the great work we have started.

If you would like to be involved in continuing this trend
so vital to our democracy, please

ATTEND OUR WMOC SOCIAL ON MARCH 22
More details forthcoming but please contact Sarbani Chowdhury if you would like to be involved
