GenerationEngage,
a nonpartisan not-for-profit, empowers young adults – especially
the half who have not attended a four-year university – with
the access and resources they need to become active citizens and
engaged participants in their communities.
GenerationEngage is built on
three principles: |
|
|
|
 |
Young people suffer not from a lack of interest, but from a lack of access; |
|
Our democracy should be a dialogue, not a monologue; |
|
|
The best investment we can make in the future of our democracy is in young leaders at the local
level. |
