SUMMARY:Opening the Door for Democracy with YVote (Why Vote)
DESCRIPTION:AEU All-Societies Platform\nMarch 31\, 2024\, 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM ET\n“YVote is creating a youth-led civic movement. We equip young people to channel their passions into positive action—at and beyond the ballot box.” \nSanda Balaban\, co-founder of YVote\, and Audrey Kindred\, of the NYSEC will present on how they collaborate to bring Voter and civic engagement activities to hundreds of youth in ongoing democracy reinforcing programs. They will show how other Ethical Societies can do similar civics / voter actions. \nThe program will include youth who will tell of their concerns and how YVote has prepared them for action and leadership. \nRSVP for Opening the Door to Democracy \nSanda Balaban is passionate about helping young people understand their individual and collective power\, at and beyond the ballot box. In response to the complex times we’re living in\, the vulnerability of democracy being demonstrated\, and the desire to support young people in being on the front lines of change\, she co-founded and directs cross-partisan youth civic engagement nonprofit YVote / Next Generation Politics\, aiming to equip leaders of tomorrow for their roles and responsibilities as citizens shaping a more just world. \nSanda has held leadership roles in education and youth development for over 25 years\, in the public sector at the New York City Department of Education\, in education philanthropy at the Ford Foundation and the Goldman Sachs Foundation\, and in nonprofits including Facing History and Ourselves\, the Boston Private Industry Council\, and The Teachers Network. \nSanda is proud to serve on the founding Board of Directors of Generation Vote and The Hope Reichbach Memorial Fund and on the National Reader Advisory Board for Chalkbeat. She is a magna cum laude graduate of Swarthmore College and Harvard Graduate School of Education. \nAudrey Kindred is Director of Ethical Education for children\, youth & families at The New York Society For Ethical Culture.
