| Project | My project is focused on making sure young women are registered to vote and to encourage them to get more involved in the political realm. it is disheartening to see that women are not as represented in political offices as they should be. I have created an event alongside the CU Women's Resource Center and New Era Colorado called "Exercise Your Right to Vote." This event will include three free exercise classes. The purpose of the event is to get women excited about voting in the upcoming election and to remind them of the fight women had to give in order for women today to have the right to vote. This event includes aspects of voter registration, voter-turnout, and encouraging discussion. |
