About SMCDFA

SAN MATEO COUNTY DEMOCRACY FOR AMERICA is a progressive grassroots organization whose mission is to inspire the active participation of San Mateo County residents in the political process; to provide a forum for communicating ideas; and to promote progressive candidates, policies, and reforms.

SMCDFA has a very active and passionate membership which researches and acts upon serious issues facing our democracy.  The group works hard to effect positive social change locally, state- and nation-wide.

SMCDFA was originally formed in 2004 when Howard Dean was running for President. The members of Dean for America in San Mateo County felt so strongly about working towards progressive change in this country that they remained together, changed the name to Democracy for America and became a chartered Democratic Club in San Mateo County.
