SUMMARY:First Vote! Presenter Training
DESCRIPTION:First Vote! is a non-partisan program that registers students in high school who are eligible and educates them about voting. It focuses on the importance of voting\, reasons people give about not voting and how to overcome them\, and the steps to becoming a voter.\n \nFirst Vote! is holding a training for presenters. Presenters will give students a 30-minute to 1-hr voter education presentation to high school students virtually and in-person this semester\, and then help students register to vote. LWV members and trained VDRs welcome!
