The youth are voting! But, what happens after the polls close? Young adults are underrepresented in the halls of power and they know it. When asked how well leaders in Washington represented them, 68 percent responded not very well. In contrast, 79 percent believe that corporations have it good. Qvisory's knows the woes of those aged 18-35. Our mission help advocate for money, health, and work policies that address the unique challenges they face. Join us for a discussion of how to best shape our advocacy agenda and engage our community on the issues that matter the most to them.
