At the Y, we believe voting isn't just a civic duty, it's also a key part of strengthening community. As a nonpartisan nonprofit organization, we are committed to helping individuals and communities across the nation prepare for Election Day (November 5, 2024).
Voting is associated with many positive benefits for both community members and nonprofit organizations like the Y. According to The Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement, voters are more likely to volunteer, contact their elected officials and stay informed about local affairs. It also helps strengthen social ties and improves health. That's why the Social Responsibility Core Committee is engaging in a voter education and voter registration campaign during the last two months before the 2024 presidential election.
The first step of civic engagement is to register to vote or check to ensure your voter registration is active using the VOTER REGISTRATION TOOL at the bottom of this page. It only takes two minutes!
You can also visit the Y to register to vote! Between now and October 15th (the last day to register to vote for this year's presidential election), we are hosting a voter registration table at our Y. Depending on the weather, it will either be outside our main entrance, or in the lobby.

If you're intersted in getting involved, staff, members or community members can volunteer to work the voter registration table. No prior knowledge or training is required. We will provide the nonpartisan information needed to help folks register to vote!
