About us
The Young Democrats of Anne Arundel County is a local organization focused on building civic skills, strengthening community ties, and supporting Democratic engagement across the county.
We aim to be welcoming to people at different levels of experience: first-time volunteers, seasoned organizers, students, working professionals, and anyone who wants to improve how local democracy works in real life.
What we value
- Community-first — we show up for neighbors, not just election cycles.
- Practical competence — workshops, training, and real skills for real work.
- Respect — politics is heated; we stay serious and constructive.
- Consistency — small actions, repeatedly, beat big promises.
