Chapter: Northern Kentucky

If you believe that Northern Kentucky communities are best served by honoring diversity and promoting sustainability, then join the Northern Kentucky chapter of Kentuckians for the Commonwealth.

The chapter began in Northern Kentucky in 2010, and has been active working to build a more just and sustainable community. From concerts, to film series, to candidate forums, our chapter is always working to find ways to better engage and work within our community. We hope you can join us, and help build a better Kentucky.

Secretary of State meetings gathering input on election laws

• Wednesday, May 22 – Kenton County
• Wednesday, May 29 – Jefferson County
• Monday, June 3 – McCracken County
• Thursday, June 20 – Madison County
