Default Voter Education Program

We are excited to announce the launch of the website
for the Better Questions, Better Decisions Voter
Education Initiative. Better Questions, Better
Decisions offers a non-partisan, skill-building
educational strategy that engages more low-income
citizens as voters and can complement existing
approaches. This initiative, a program of the Right
Question Project, in collaboration with Creative
Narrations, consists of the following components:
• In the Land of Decisions - a 1-1/2 hour workshop
incorporating simple exercises to help low-income
citizens discover connections between their lives and
the value of voting. This workshop is available as a
download from the website and is designed for
educators, social service providers, and community
organizers to implement in small group settings.
• Their Decisions, Our Stories, - a DVD/VHS in which
individuals tell personal stories about how public
decision-making impacts their lives. These stories are
available on the web with a download-able
facilitator's guide and is an ideal follow-up to the
In the Land of Decisions workshop.

The workshop and videos are both available on our
website, http://www.rightquestion.org/betterdecisions,
or can be ordered as a kit for $25.00. The activities
are straightforward, and come with guides to make the
process as easy as possible. Please try them out,
voter registration deadlines are looming large!

If you are also interested in facilitator training to
lead workshops, or in producing digital stories in
your community, please contact us. We also look
forward to hearing your feedback and results. Send us
an email at info@rightquestion.org

Sincerely,

Luz Santana, Dan Rothstein and Natasha Freidus
The Better Questions, Better Decisions Team
