Youth dada or data

more from a favorite site of mine, civicyouth.org

"The research on youth volunteering trends found that 50 percent of young people between ages 18 and 25 who volunteer grew up in a family where someone spent time volunteering;
while 65 percent of youth who do not volunteer followed their non-volunteering family’s lead. Further, the data showed that 60 percent of young people who volunteered came from a household where politics was discussed."

text from the press release found here. I had difficulties downloading the report, if someone else can, then let me know.

and just in case you missed it last time I posted it, here's the data on youth voting from the mid-terms.

FYI, youth voter turnout for ages 18-29 was 24%. and that's up from 20% in 2000

cheers,
