Thank you to everyone who joined us last night at the Action Civics Showcase!

The event was a powerful, virtual evening of amplifying and celebrating youth voices and civic leadership! Young people from all across the country are currently working on community problem-solving projects, and the culminating event brought together these youth civic leaders and adult allies to discuss their action projects, make connections, and receive feedback about next steps! The event kicked off with an energizing youth panel to discuss their research, lessons learned, calls to action, and to empower other young people to use their own expertise to lead the way on addressing the issues that they are most passionate about!
