We need your help to create a representative sample of young America!
This July, all eyes will turn to our nation’s capital as Close Up, the Deliberative Democracy Lab at Stanford University (DDL), Helena, and the Generation Lab convene America in One Room: The Youth Vote, a historic gathering of first-time voters. The idea? To engage in deliberation around the issues facing our country with 500 young Americans of all backgrounds, communities, and worldviews.
To ensure that we create a truly representative sample of young people nationwide, we invite you to submit your name by May 8, 2024, for a chance to be selected for this program.
The program is underwritten by a nonpartisan philanthropy, so there will be no cost to participate. If you are selected for the in-person program, America in One Room: The Youth Vote will pay for all travel to and from Washington, hotel accommodations, and meals. If you are not selected for the in-person program, you will have the chance to participate in virtual activities as the event takes place. All we ask of you is to be 18 and eligible to cast your first vote by November 5 and to engage in thoughtful issue discussions with your peers.
