Making Democracy Accessible to the Next Generation

In January the Voter Registration Committee will resume planning sessions with coordinators, then in February volunteer trainings/updates, and in Feb-Mar-April voter registration volunteer opportunities. Some schools have already expressed interest in our classroom presentations, and some students want to hold student-led voter registration drives at their schools.

We have been awarded a grant of $750 by the LWVUS Education Fund to support our Spring voter registration activities. This grant will be wisely spent, especially in supporting our student-led activities.

If you are interested in:
    1. helping with planning,
    2. helping with training volunteers,
    3. being trained as a volunteer,
    4. volunteering with voter registration in the classroom, or
    5. helping with student-led voter registration events,

Please contact Betsy Patterson at lwvvc.info [at] gmail.com (subject: LWVVC%20Voter%20Registration) and let her know what you would like to do.
