Voter Registration

Young people are directly impacted by decisions made by elected officials -- however, across the U.S., young people aged 18-24 have the lowest voter turnout of any age group
- When youth voices are missing from elections, decisions are made without the perspective of the generation most affected by long-term policies
Early engagement increases the likelihood of lifelong civic participation
Note: Registering to vote does not require you to vote in every election. It simply gives you the option to participate when you choose

Double Take is building a school-based model that helps students navigate voter registration with clarity and support
- Clear information on what registration is and what it means
- Step-by-step guidance to make the process manageable
- Graduate with the tools to participate actively in civic life

Immediate: 100% voter registration among eligible high school seniors in NYC
Long-term: Expand our model for use in schools nationwide -- strengthening youth civic engagement across the U.S.
