What other champions are forward-leaning on youth engagement in civic and political participation (e.g., religious groups, universities?) 5. How does gender inform civic and political participation of youth from different communities across the country? 6. How would your organization develop a balance between supporting traditionally under-served groups of youth in comparison to those that have had more advantages?
