Thank you to our witnesses for being here.
I'll start with Ms. Reusch.
You mentioned at the top that youth have strong ideas. They're not apathetic, but they do feel distanced from the system. That's what the study is trying to do. It's to see how we can reach them, and I appreciate all the work you're doing.
You said that people who are more disconnected from civil institutions end up being more vulnerable to being manipulated. I appreciate it when you say they're not disengaged, but that they're looking for an on-ramp. I think that was very telling.
I also appreciate the work you're doing with the longer conversations in the canvassing that you're doing. You referred to them as longer, local and relevant conversations. Do you have success stories about someone who might have been approached and now is doing the work?
Maybe in that vein, can you tell us how you got involved?
