December 2022: Our DCCD Executive Board and Caucus Chairs meet for Holiday Brunch & to reflect on the next steps.
Our Mission
We have a unique place in the nation. As students in the District of Columbia, we are seated in the heart of the US government, giving us enormous resources and opportunities. We are dedicated to organizing DC students to promote the principles of equality, opportunity, social justice, and freedom through activism, education, and campaigning.
Our Impact
The District of Columbia College Democrats are pushing into full gear for this upcoming election. We've developed a strategic plan with a list of ambitious goals to guide our organization through the 2020 Presidential Elections. This plan will serve as a starting point for an organization that will do work unrivaled by any other organization in the countrs and will serve as a model for College Democrats chapters.
