The Disability Vote Coalition is looking to partner with schools to help students with disabilities  understand their voting rights and responsibilities.  

The purpose of these grants is to 

  • find creative ways that educators can inform students with (and without) disabilities to register and become active voters,
  • inform students of potential barriers to voting (i.e. photo ID, transportation) so they are better prepared to handle them if they come up; and,  
  • empower students with an understanding of their voting rights and how to advocate for themselves when needed.
