As we find ourselves in the midst of 2024, a critical election year, the importance of civic engagement has never been clearer. While voting is fundamental to our democracy, engaged individuals can go beyond the ballot box to make a meaningful impact. Fortunately, resources are available to guide and empower citizens in their pursuit of active participation.
One such resource is the WNC Nonpartisan Voting Group, a collective comprising nearly 30 individuals affiliated with over 20 nonpartisan organizations, higher education institutions, and faith communities in Western North Carolina. Together, they have curated a comprehensive resource titled "A Guide to Taking Action in 2024 in WNC," aimed at equipping individuals with the tools and opportunities to engage meaningfully in the electoral process.
The guide, accessible through this link [here], serves as a roadmap for civic involvement, offering a diverse array of avenues through which individuals can make a tangible difference.
As advocates for civic engagement, we urge you to share this guide with your networks and communities. Whether you're a seasoned activist or a first-time participant, there's a role for everyone in safeguarding our democracy and amplifying the voices of all citizens.
