Facilitated by Susan Harrington and Nate Hoover
By voting, citizens express opinions and make their voices heard. When we vote in a political election, we choose candidates who have some of the same beliefs that we do and can help us to get our wants & needs met. By voting we express our opinions about the rules that govern our society. Voting shows that we care about the community around us, and about our country and world as a whole.
This training will teach individuals supported by DDS and their supporters about the voting process, including how to find one’s polling place and suggestions for researching candidates. There will also be a forum for you to discuss barriers to voting.
