“Through the USC Civic Engagement program, I have learned that although I live in South Central my vote counts. With each vote, we choose our government representatives responsible to lead this country. Today, I understand that in this country it is important to participate in voting elections. Our votes determine the nation’s future, what is best for our families, society, and education. Programs like this enhance our civic education level– politics, and its importance.”
