“Getting It Done” Replay

October 7, 2021

You don’t have to be a big organization or a Washington DC lobbyist to change things for the better. We’ll talk to three people who didn’t wait for problems to solve themselves – they jumped in, did the work, and made a real difference. Our panelists will explain how they pulled it off and offer advice to anyone looking to get more involved in civic life.

Panelists

Betsy Armentrout

Co-founder of Georgia Voting Works, which worked with the Georgia Secretary of State and major Atlanta-based corporations like Delta and Coca Cola to help make voting safer and easier during the last election.

Justine Lee
