This is a unique opportunity for students to develop leadership skills to add to their resume, college applications, and their future as participating members of civic society. Students join other civic-minded adults at different polling locations throughout the city to serve voters on Election Day. They will learn about the democratic process, assist voting operations on site, and uphold our mission to conduct free, fair, and functional elections.
Students also gain 15 hours of community service hours and a stipend of $180 (+20 for bilingual status).
