Getting Involved

There are a lot of ways to get involved. You could pass information to other people around you, vote, learn how to vote, be a believer yourself, and/or participate in non-violent protests.

What Can You Do

Voting

Voting is a very important process to determine our local, state, and federal officals. When an indivual is 18, or approching 18 in an election year, it is very important to register in order to have a say in what officals are put into office. However, the voting is not the end of the process, if an offical that you voted for or represents your area is doing something you do not agree with, contact them to voice your opinion. If this action is taken by many, change can be achieved.
