History
The League of Women Voters was established in Highland Park in 1928. Its beginning objectives were to promote education in citizenship, work for efficient administration of government, support the legislative program of the league, and to retain a non-partisan identity. The League promoted registration, community involvement, education, physical health, and city preservation among other things.
