September is National Voter Registration Month, and Challenge Unlimited is excited to help our community get #VoteReady for the upcoming elections! We’re committed to providing access to online resources to help you register and prepare to vote in the 2024 election.

Why Register to Vote?

Voting is one of the most important ways to have your voice heard in shaping the future of our communities. However, many eligible voters—especially those with disabilities—face barriers to accessing the polls. At Challenge Unlimited, we believe that every voice matters, and we are committed to ensuring that every eligible voter, regardless of ability, has the opportunity to participate in the democratic process.

Accessible Voting for People with Disabilities

It’s crucial that voting is accessible for all, including individuals with disabilities. Illinois offers a variety of tools and accommodations to ensure that voters with disabilities can register, vote, and make their voices heard. You can find these resources on our Voter Registration Resource Page, including:

  • Accessible online voter registration
  • Mail-in and absentee voting options for those who may find it difficult to visit a polling place
  • In-person voting accessibility features, such as curbside voting and accessible voting equipment
