I’m Tracy Styer, a Johnson County resident since 1974, a wife, and a mom to two grown daughters—one in Olathe, the other in Seattle. My life has been a testament to the idea of being a ‘Jack of all trades.’ I’ve navigated the complexities of IT as a systems engineer and then transitioned to the rewarding field of occupational therapy as a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant. It’s quite a shift, but I’ve always enjoyed learning and adapting to new challenges.

- We’ll be at Black Bear Diner (11981 S Strang Line Rd, Olathe, KS 66062)
Game Night is back, BABY!
JCDW’s annual winter fundraiser, Game Night, is happening on Saturday, February 22nd from 6-9 pm at Shawnee Mission Unitarian Universalist Church. Get your tickets and mark your calendars, because getting Democrats elected in Johnson County has never been so much fun!
Our theme this year is self-care, and what better way to care for ourselves than to gather around a table to laugh, learn, and show off our mad skills? Whether you’re a serious trivia nerd or a casual party gamer, we’ve got you covered with games like Cards Against Humanity, Bezzerwizzer, Cranium, Who’s the G.O.A.T.?, Taboo, and more.
Tickets are $25 for members, $30 for nonmembers, $15 for students. All proceeds go toward electing Democrats in this year’s elections, so additional donations are always welcome!
A BIG THANK YOU to all
We held our JCDW Board Elections this January and I have been re-elected as the President of JCDW. First I want to thank you all for your trust. I’m hoping to continue, with your help, the good work of educating women to run for office.
Second, I want to thank ALL the board members. We’ve elected Christine Morgan as Secretary (previously appointed to fill a vacancy), re-elected Juliet Sinclair as VP of Programs and have JUST elected Tracy Styer as VP of Communication! 🫶👏👏👏👏💪💙
We look forward to working with motivated women across the county as we continue our work of electing Democrats in Johnson County!

About Us
Johnson County Democratic Women is part of the Kansas Federation of Democratic Women, which is part of the National Federation of Democratic Women.
Our mission is to empower women to run for office and to support the election of like-minded Democrats to state and local office. We do this through education and training, but especially through donations to qualified candidates. Your financial donation to either of our organizations will go directly to Democratic candidates running in Johnson County.
Check out the Johnson County Democratic Party Event Calendar for more ways to get involved this month!
As of October 28, 2024, Johnson County Democratic Women North has merged into Johnson County Democratic Women South, making us one fully united organization. If you were a member of either group, you are now a member of JCDW (no need to make any changes). We will continue to host a social on the first Thursday of the month in the northern part of the county and a meeting/program on the third Thursday of the month in Olathe. We look forward to working with motivated women across the county as we continue our work of electing Democrats in Johnson County!
