Welcome
| Welcome to the Democratic Club of the Conejo Valley! The Democratic Club of the Conejo Valley (DCCV) is dedicated to promoting progressive ideals throughout Ventura County and California. We believe in good jobs, a balanced budget, choice, a clean environment, quality education, more cops on our streets and keeping guns out of the hands of criminals. We are pro-family and pro-children. We fight for a quality education and safe schools for our children. We'll continue to fight to raise the minimum wage, protect Social Security and provide quality and affordable health care for everyone. The DCCV will be promoting candidates for elections, as well as informing the local community and inviting others to be more active in creating a better society.
