We work to elect Democrats, strengthen the party, and improve it from within.

Why Join DCC

The Democratic Club of Claremont is the voice of the 11,500 registered Democrats in the city of Claremont.  We work to elect Democrats, strengthen the party, and improve it from within.  Together, we elect Democrats from up and down the ticket – from President of the United States to Claremont city council.  We write endorsement questionnaires, interview candidates, issue endorsements, and support our endorsed candidates with door knocks, lit drops, phone calls, postcards, and more.  We take positions on legislation, lobby our legislators in person, hold them accountable for their votes, and make them earn our support year after year.  We discuss policy.  We debate.  We influence party decisions.  We vote.  We are active in our communities.  We improve our community.  We host events and build community among ourselves.  We are the party’s grassroots.

    Anna Jacobsen, Founder of Better Claremont Playgrounds

    Anna Jacobsen is an urban planner and Claremont parent who founded Better Claremont Playgrounds after hearing the same refrain from parents again and again: our parks matter deeply to young families, yet many families were driving to other cities because Claremont’s playgrounds were not meeting the needs of our kids. In the years following the pandemic, when parks became central gathering places and a lifeline for connection, those conversations took on new urgency.

    In 2025, Anna helped transition the effort into a nonprofit, The Play Collective, where she serves as Board President. Professionally, she is the founder of CityWise, a public policy consulting firm focused on strategic planning and community engagement.

    Ms. Jacobsen is currently running for Claremont City Council in the 2026 elections for District 4.


    Club Program: 7pm - 7:45pm —  Anna Jacobsen, Founder of Better Claremont Playgrounds

    Business Meeting: 8pm - 9pm
