The Problem

The New18 Campaign seeks to increase youth participation in politics. Our principal goal is to lower the voting age in the State of Connecticut.

Plan of Action

Our advocacy approach has two prongs: (1) Raising Awareness (though mainstream news outlets and social media) and (2) Political Engagement (through meetings with state and local policymakers).
