About
The Student Voter Empowerment Clubs (SVEC) establishes and sponsors non-partisan dynamic student-led civic engagement clubs in high schools, open to grades 9-12. SVEC clubs fill the gap from a lack of civics education in school curricula, increase student voter turnout, and cultivate a lifelong commitment to voting and civic engagement.
With clubs in Dallas and Tarrant counties, some of the student-led activities include candidate forums, town halls, voter registration drives, meetings with elected officials, voting-themed contests, and field trips to legislative and governmental meetings.
Here is a list of schools with an SVEC on campus:

WHO WE ARE
We are a non-partisan voter empowerment organization with 501(c)(3) tax exempt status. Our mission is to significantly increase voter participation and turnout, especially among historically low-propensity voters, and to ensure that candidates and elected officials (national, state, and local) advocate and promote justice, equity, and equal opportunity in American life. We seek to empower voters by removing barriers to voting and bringing low-propensity voters into the political process.
We utilize our trained, non-partisan network of more than 2,500 volunteers to facilitate and promote all aspects of voter empowerment, including registration, education, engagement, motivation, and mobilization.
WHAT WE DO
We engage in a full array of voter empowerment activities. We mobilize our volunteer network to conduct voter registration drives and to educate and motivate voters.
