The 2020-2021 New Voices Initiative promotes gender parity and diversity and seeks to increase the number of women, young adults and underrepresented populations within our association. It features a diverse group of Lions who are selected annually by their district governor for their dynamic and innovative contributions in one of four areas:
Service, Membership, Leadership, and Marketing.

This year, to encourage regionalization and support at the grassroot level, recognition will be primarily focused at the district level. By eliminating the nomination protocol, which requires endorsement at multiple levels, New Voice nominees will be recognized throughout the year showcasing their talents and contributions in a more timely manner. We encourage local areas to promote the program and their nominees with the goal of attracting new dynamic members into our association and encouraging them to seek leadership positions.
