This info session will tell you everything you need to know about working at a polling location on Election Day and the application process. If selected to work at a polling location, teens have the option of earning a stipend OR up to 8 SSL hours. Not sure if this volunteer opportunity is for you? That's okay – coming to this info session is NOT a commitment to work the polls. Everyone who comes to the info session can earn two SSL hours.
