“Civic engagement is empowering... But too many young people don’t know where their voices fit in — or, after historical exclusion and oppression, have turned away from politics as an avenue for change.” ​

How are you voting? #ParadigmShifter Kathy Pomer voted by mail and shares with us her process!

“Thrilled that our ballots came yesterday we immediately got busy filling in ovals and preparing the envelope for sending back and being counted. But what to do next? Send it back from the Post Office? Put extra stamps and put it back in our box? Take it to town hall today or on November 3!? Amazing though we've had a plan (and back ups) for voting the moment came and it was paralyzing!!! We decided the good old USPS got it to us - it would get it where it needed to go - and so with double stamps (and a tracking number!) we happily share this and this!”
