YAC aims to bring together service providers who work with youth (13-24 years old) to encourage networking, collaboration, and awareness.

As a poll greeter, you are the last source of guidance and information before voters cross the threshold to the ballot box. Your presence matters.

Plan to attend a 1-hour poll greeting training where you learn how to greet, guide, and support our voters with needed information. Your trainer walks you through a step-by-step process and best practices to make the greatest impact on voters. You’ll have the opportunity to sign up for your best day(s) and time(s) with our Mobilize app.

Flyin’ West is a  compelling, crowd-pleasing drama by esteemed playwright Pearl Cleage. Set in the 1890s, the story unfolds in the historic town of Nicodemus, Kansas, one of the many all-black towns established in the American West following the Civil War. Through the eyes of four African-American women, the play delves into their journey of resilience and aspiration as they navigate their lives against the backdrop of the harsh realities of the frontier and the societal constraints of the era. With themes of community, racial pride, and female empowerment, Flyin’ West is a powerful portrayal of the determination and grit of black pioneers, offering audiences a captivating glimpse into an often overlooked chapter of American history.

A talkback with the cast & crew of Flyin’ West will be held following the performances on February 11th and 18th.
