We proudly share highlights from the 2025 League of Women Voters of Massachusetts (LWVMA) State Convention – Year 105: Democracy Forward – held in Mansfield, MA on June 14.
The keynote speaker, Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell, delivered an inspiring address on protecting democracy and expanding civic engagement across the Commonwealth.
During the convention, five remarkable League members were honored for their exceptional leadership, advocacy, and educational efforts over the past two years. One of the notable members was Kris Eastman from the LWV SouthCoast.
Ms. Eastman, who lives in Mattapoisett, received the Certificate of Outstanding Achievement for her impactful work in the South Coast region, including Gateway Cities like New Bedford. Her dedication to civic education and voter outreach has significantly strengthened the League’s presence and influence in the South Coast.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Kris Eastman and all esteemed award recipients for their unwavering commitment to advancing democracy. Their relentless efforts inspire us all while making a profound difference in our society.
The Certificate of Outstanding Achievement was signed by Marie Gauthier, Courtney Rau Rogers, the Co-Presidents, and Celia Canavan, Executive Director of the League of Women Voters of Massachusetts (LWVMA).
