Vote 18 DIY Kit
The private sector has mastered the art of turning our young people into consumers while the government does little if anything to turn them into active citizens. Vote 18 has developed this effective, powerful interactive voting game that helps instill an emotional resonance to voting and civic participation, which in turn inspires our students to become passionate and involved in the local and national elections that affect their lives and communities.
Please join our growing community of facilitators, chapter leaders, students, parents and administrators and help us turn our young people of today into consistent voters tomorrow.
Get started by contacting us for more information. We also encourage you to download our Do-It-Yourself Manual. It is loaded with ideas and step-by-step suggestions to help you start a chapter, host the program and bring Vote 18’s proven interactive voting game to as many teenagers as possible.

(Some facilitators have requested a simplied "script" version of the Lesson Plan to use in the classroom as they are learning to teach the program. This version, which lacks the detailed explanation of each part of the program, is available for download here (Special Thanks to Mobile Coordindate Myra Evans for this idea!)
The Vote 18 Lesson Plan is also available in Spanish
