Special Oneg with Laura Brill, Founder, The Civics Center
Please join us for a special Oneg with Laura Brill, founder and CEO of The Civics Center, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to combating youth voter suppression and low youth turnout.
“The problem is not apathy,” she says. “It is the lack of investment in welcoming young people into our democracy, helping them register, teaching them how public issues connect with their lives and showing why their votes matter.”
Laura will speak about the work of The Civics Center and how they are making a difference, one youth vote at a time.
