The Impact of Your Vote
Join us for a day of civic engagement and learn how to mobilize community members to engage in the democratic process, increase the number of voter registrants and create a platform for individuals to elevate their voices this 2016 election and beyond.
Voting is a driving factor towards positive change and our community members have the ability to play a powerful role in the decisions that affect the quality of life where we live and work and improve the lives of thousands.
