Why Does It Matter?

All voices deserve to be heard


At YWCA, we’re deeply invested in ensuring that everyone who can participate in the hard-won right to vote does – especially women, including young women, women of color, and those in communities that have long been overlooked due to deeply entrenched legacies of gender and racial discrimination in our social structures and institutions.

Our daily lives depend on it


Our votes will determine the direction and values of our nation for years to come. Whether it’s the President, Congress, state legislators, or state executives – such as governors and attorneys general – each of these offices hold a great deal of power. From the kinds of medical care we can access to the ways our federal and state governments invest in child care, victims services, and so much more, the results of this election will have direct impact on our day-to-day lives.

STEP 1

Make sure you’re registered to vote!

STEP 4

Spread the word.

Reach out to at least five friends, neighbors, or family members who you think may not be registered or may not plan to vote. Explain the stakes and help them complete this cycle of steps. Those first calls you make can become hundreds of new, motivated voters.
