Making Democracy Accessible to the Next Generation

Student-led Civic Education and Voter Registration events are creating real momentum at local high schools! Our Friday lunch series has drawn impressive crowds of 70-75 students each session who actively participate in educational games, engage in meaningful civic discussions, and take concrete steps toward democratic participation.

Students aren't just attending—they're taking action:
    • Completing voter registration forms
    • Pre-registering for future elections
    • Filling out "It's Time to Vote" reminder cards for our follow-up program

The initiative's sustainability is particularly exciting. Our student leader has built a team of 8-10 dedicated junior students who will carry this work forward next year, creating lasting impact and peer-to-peer civic engagement.

Looking ahead: High School Voter Education Weeks run April 14-25. Watch for upcoming announcements about volunteer opportunities to support this vital work connecting young citizens with their democratic power.
