What to Expect at the Event
For too long, civic spaces have often overlooked young perspectives. Yet, it is the youth who live with the outcomes of today’s decisions. This event builds confidence by giving young people the tools to understand voting and civic engagement. With the 2025 elections ahead, this gathering provides knowledge that translates into action.
Your Voice, Your Vote #2 will run from 4:30 PM to 7:00 PM at Akoma Unity Center, located at 1367 N. California Street in San Bernardino. Topics on the agenda include pertinent issues like voter registration and Proposition 50 redistricting in California. Additionally, the event will discuss tenant housing rights and transitional-age youth housing resources. What makes this gathering unique is that the questions come from youth themselves. Instead of adults telling young people why they should care, it will be the young leaders driving the dialogue and shaping the conversation.

By understanding how to register to vote, how policies affect housing, and how leaders respond to community concerns, young people leave empowered to act. Beyond politics, the event fosters a culture of civic engagement in San Bernardino. For youth, this encourages responsibility, awareness, and leadership. This is more than a one-day event – it is the beginning of a season of change.
