The Arc believes all eligibile Minnesotans should know the importance of voting. When individuals vote, they chose elected officials who will make decisions about issues that may impact their life.
By voting, Minnesotans have a chance to shape policies that may impact entire communities. The Arc Minnesota has a great toolkit that shares detailed information about the power of the vote. The tool kit informs people how to register to vote, the methods for voting absentee, how to find polling stations, contains a sample ballot and has important links for additional assistance. Learn more about this took kit here.
The Arc Minnesota believes in the self-advocacy movement motto, “nothing about us without us." That includes voting! Time commitment can be a few hours on election day or numerous hours leading up to elections. Help overs feel empowered to vote and gain the skills needed to exercise their right to vote.
