Cincinnati Section & Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® Phi Psi Omega Chapter Host “Planning Your Vote” Panel Discussion

The Cincinnati Section of the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW), in collaboration with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® Phi Psi Omega Chapter, hosted an engaging and informative panel discussion, “Planning Your Vote.”

The evening brought community members together for meaningful conversation focused on voter education, preparedness, and civic engagement. Attendees had an opportunity to hear timely information about the voting process, learn about important updates and considerations for upcoming elections, and gain practical information to help them confidently prepare to exercise their right to vote.

More than an informational session, the discussion reinforced the importance of being an informed and engaged voter. Through thoughtful dialogue and audience participation, the evening encouraged attendees to ask questions, seek reliable information, develop their personal voting plans, and share what they learned with their families and communities.
