Mobilizing Millenials and the Power of the People

Heather Smith, Duke alumna and former president of Rock the Vote, will discuss her experiences with grassroots organizing and building citizen political power. Under her leadership, Rock the Vote ran the largest nonpartisan voter engagement efforts in the country during the last two presidential elections, launched a national high school civics education initiative, and refined best practices and new technologies for the continued engagement of young voters. She is now serving as senior advisor for The Pluribus Project, a joint initiative of the Aspen Institute and the Rockefeller Brothers Fund to catalyze innovation to build the political power of the many.
