Election Day

   Engaging Young Americans In Meaningful Community Action

WELCOME

Welcome to Youthwork Makes the Boothwork!  Our site connects you with ways to engage in upcoming elections, and get involved with opportunities for civic engagement in your school, town, county, state and nation.  Become an active player in our democracy.

 

Call to Action, Call to Learn


Youth, teachers, and public officials find below four avenues where you can make a difference in our public life.  Each avenue offers a different entry-point for learning and active engagement.  Our vision is that you – and, we strongly recommend, your friends and colleagues – will explore the suggestions here for getting involved, that you will find one or two that are fitting for your location and interests, and that you will be inspired to engage in these public issues and decisions.

How You Can Help at The Polls

Steps to contacting, volunteering, and working in your local polling place in November; materials to assist you in approaching polling officials and party leaders.

Making this Part of Your Learning

Strategies and materials to design learning modules acceptable to your school or college: strategies and resources for teachers/professors and students to enrich this experience (for credit).

 

A Call to
Action

Articles, podcasts and other resources that make the argument for youth involvement in our elections; particular focus on 2020 when polling places will need more personnel to stay open and accessible.
