Third Wednesday at 10 a.m. at the Wheaton Library. Members also have a strong interest in the Chesapeake Bay Clean-up program and the county recycling program. Its mission is to educate, communicate, and advocate for children, and to encourage coordination and collaboration in the delivery of services through both the public and private sectors. They also monitor new issues that the League may want to study. Observer Corps members may be scheduled to attend as many as a couple of meetings a month, or as few as one or two a year, depending on their preferences.
Volunteers receive a handbook of simple procedures to follow when observing and reporting.
Results of consensus studies are also released to inform the public and local government and generate action. Members work closely with Membership, Action, and Resource Committees to further the image of the League. In past years this committee presented units on de-institutionalization of the mentally ill, child care, basic human needs, and homelessness. More volunteers are needed for this far-reaching study. Speakers address civic and other organizations on ballot questions and other issues which the League has studied.
