Youth Video and Graphics
Visit the Youth Video and Graphics page for a collection of videos and graphics developed by and for youth, originally created in 2020. These items were developed to encourage high schoolers/youth to participate in the election, including registering, voting and serving as election judges. Everyone is encouraged to share them on social media, embed them on on websites and otherwise use them to encourage youth registration, voting and turnout. Also see the Youth Outreach and Civic Engagement page for more information on this LWVCC team's activities. From Election Resources page intro to this page. LB
This page displays a variety of videos and graphics for local youth that encourage their civic engagement. This collection is maintained by the Youth Outreach and Civic Engagement (YOCE) team of LWVCC. You're welcome to download these videos and graphics. Feel free to share them widely to help increase youth participation and civic engagement.
These items are the result of a collaboration with local high schools, the NAACP/ACT-SO project and the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Champaign-Urbana Alumnae Chapter. For more information, see Sponsoring Projects section below.

Why Vote? Student Video Challenge
|
The League's Youth Outreach and Civic Engagement (YOCE) team sponsored a Student Video Challenge to engage high school students to develop videos to encourage other students to vote and participate in the November 3, 2020 election. YOCE reviewed national data of young voters and found that they pay most attention to positive voting messages from their peers.
