Mission Statement
We’re on a mission to strengthen democracy by increasing high impact youth civic action and closing the gap between young people who want to take civic action and those who actually take action. TurnUp includes five integrated programs that work together to increase youth voter

Our programs combat discriminatory election laws by building a broader and more engaged electorate across the state of NC.
