In an effort to encourage young people to get out and cast their vote and be part of the process, on a national level the League of Women Voters has been visiting high schools to register and pre-register students to vote. In the first six months of 2019 alone, league members successfully registered over 20,000 high school students, and their efforts are ongoing.
If you are interested in spreading the message, you can share the film and give a presentation in your community or classroom.
