Summer Programs with YVote

YVote is offering three summer programs for high school students this summer: Democracy Camp, a week-long in-person intensive that will run from Friday, June 27, 2025 - Thursday, July 3, 2025. You can read more about it here ($250 stipend); Changemakers Summer Institute, a six-week Tuesday evening in-person program in July 2025 and August 2025 for up-and-coming high school leaders to join YVote's cross-partisan, youth-driven civic engagement movement to make a positive difference in their communities, at and beyond the ballot box ($250 stipend); and Civic Fellowship, a six-week remote Wednesday evening program in July 2025 and August 2025 for high school students nationwide to discuss civic issues and meet with industry professionals (unpaid). These programs will support participants in building knowledge to support a youth wave in voting and civic engagement in New York and beyond, and to implement campaigns in their schools. The priority deadline for this application is May 23, 2025 and applicants can submit via their online form. Feel free to email chris-ann@yvoteny.org with any questions.
