OYUnited & CIRCLE Team Up on Survey of Young Voters’ Perceptions

By OYUnited and CIRCLE

OYUnited worked with CIRCLE, the Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement at Tufts University, to survey young leaders in six states—Arizona, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, and Washington— to understand their experiences with, knowledge of and perceptions of election and voting.

We identified the main barriers that young people face in casting a ballot, and offered specific action steps to remedy them. Our initial findings are summarized in the attached PDF (a full report will be released in early 2019 and we’ll share it on OYUnited.org).

The findings are also included in the Resources section of OYunited.org. To learn more about CIRCLE, visit civicyouth.org.
