💙💛 So proud of our NAACP Evanston Youth Council!

Our young people came together for our Get Out the Vote event to share the history of the Black vote, discuss voting rights, and encourage our community to understand the power of civic participation.

Thank you to the Evanston RoundTable for highlighting our youth and the important conversations they are helping to lead in our community.

Please take a moment to read the article and celebrate these incredible young leaders! 🗳️✨
