Annual Meeting

Engaging our youth in our democracy


June 11th - virtual
10:00am - 12:00pm

 
 Join us for our Annual Meeting where Julie Yick, Ed.D. will lead us in a discussion about working with students to promote civic engagement in our communities.   Dr. Yick will share her thoughts about building bridges between communities followed by the perspectives of two students who are dedicated to civic engagement, community service, and social justice.
 
We will brainstorm how our League can connect with our students to promote civic involvement and a commitment to voting. Bring your ideas and be a part of this important conversation.
 
 You will also learn what your league has been doing, our priorities for next year and help us elect new officers. This event is for LWVLAMV members.
