Roundtable Discussion Aims To Encourage Women To Serve in Local Government

The Southwest Missouri chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW) is hosting a roundtable discussion on September 25 for women thinking about running for local offices or working on a campaign. 

The educational event will have candidates for local, county and state public office talking about their experiences campaigning.

According to Southwest Missouri NOW's online newsletter, those attending the roundtable can expect to learn practical skills for becoming a first-time candidate or being a member of a campaign team.

The roundtable discussion will be held Wednesday, September 25, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Schweitzer Brentwood Branch Library at 2214 S. Brentwood Blvd. in Springfield.
