P.O.W.E.R Brunch

Did you know that there are over 300,000 formerly incarcerated persons in the United States registered to vote, yet only 21% exercise their civic duty? In 2021, New York State restored the right to vote for anyone formerly convicted or currently on parole. Now more than ever, your voice on the ballot is crucial in electing individuals who embody the ideals of a nation that values freedom, liberty, and a fair justice system.

Join us for our P.O.W.E.R. Brunch at Restoration Plaza! Not only will there be delicious food in a beautiful setting, but you will also meet powerful women in various legislative positions throughout New York. They will engage in a panel discussion, sharing their roles, policies that affect you, and how advocacy can transform our communities.
