Much of the Ingham County Democratic Party's work is done through our committees.
We need volunteers to help these committees achieve our goals! Use the form below to sign up.
Please select from the list below, and someone will be in touch. Committee meetings will be posted at inghamcountydemocraticparty.net once we get set for the 2024-2026 election cycle.
For committees with a **, the Chair shall make the appointment and submit appointments to the Expanded Executive Committee for approval per the Bylaws.
Communications
Create a coordinated communication strategy. Create and oversee content for our websites, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, letters to the editor, emails, etc., to amplify the events and opportunities of ICDP, its partners, and the excellent work our Democratic leaders are doing.
Data & Analytics
Performs analyses and maintains the database to keep everything running smoothly and ensure Committees and leadership have their data needs met. From data entry to data analysis, our volunteers make this work possible!
Elections Committee
Recruit candidates for local offices, including school boards and other positions, while providing training on the endorsement process and database training. The committee also oversees our endorsement process. School boards and local races have become more important as the fight for human rights and dignity moves to schools and local government.
Finance**
Creates the annual budget and oversees an annual audit. We are looking for people interested in non-profit governance
Fundraising and Special Events
Plan fundraisers and other events throughout the year. Work with other committees to support key objectives or partner events.
Judicial Qualifications** (resumes in 2026 as needed)
Makes recommendations on judicial candidates and judicial appointments based on the ICDP bylaws. A majority of the Committee shall be attorneys.
Organization and Development
Hold or assist with voter registration drives throughout the year. Act as liaison to MSU, LCC, youth organizations, and high schools to organize young Democrats or progressives. Recruit precinct delegates and captains across the county; host training for these individuals so they are informed community leaders who are encouraged to facilitate opportunities for our elected leaders and candidates to connect with their neighborhoods and communities.

Resolutions & Bylaws
Responsible for considering any resolutions or amendments to the bylaws and reporting to the Expanded County Committee. Resolutions are an important way to share ICDP values by bringing an issue to our membership. Some of the current bylaws are antiquated and need to be updated.
Welcome committee
Every week, we have new people who may wish to become involved, whether in person or by attending an event. It can be overwhelming with different rules, bylaws, and activities.
We need friendly people willing to follow up with new people, either by phone or email, and serve as a point person to support them in becoming involved.
