When Women Vote, Democrats Win!
The Connecticut Federation of Democratic Women (CFDW) was organized in 1922 by our founder and first president, Fannie Dixon Welch. The CFDW is the oldest Federation of Democratic Women’s organizations in the country. CFDW is a member of the National Federation of Democratic Women.
The purpose of our organization is to support the principles of the Democratic Party, to encourage growth of an intelligent and conscientious electorate and to assume full share of our responsibility for good government.
