I’m excited to join a panel discussion about the importance of voting, staying involved in our communities, and understanding how government decisions affect our everyday lives.

NextVoice brings together Detroit residents ages 18–40, invited by Detroit City Council President James Tate, Jr., to share their perspectives on life in Detroit and help shape the future of our city. I’m looking forward to an important conversation about civic engagement and why every voice—and every vote—matters!
