CoCo Dems Events
Membership meetings
We want to hear from you! What are the issues/topics you would like us to focus on when we plan guest speakers for our monthly meetings?
Saturday October 10: Guest Percy Brown Jr. Percy Brown Jr is an educational leader, author, and community advocate. He will explore how public education remains one of the last truly democratic institutions in American life. He will invite participants to reflect on how leadership, community partnership, and sustained investment in children—across geography and difference—are essential to democracy, not as an ideal, but as a daily practice.
Coming up!
November: Celebrations, County Board Updates, and looking ahead.
December: Brunch. CoCo Dems Executive Committee elections.
