Please be sure to provide education about voting, if needed as well as opportunities for your individuals to vote. Twogether Consulting recommends checking out the “My Voter Portal” at the Secretary of State’s website before voting to look for your voting location and to ensure an individual is still registered, as the individual may not be registered anymore if they have moved for example. FYI, the voter registration deadline ended on Oct. 7th, 2024. Information on services for voting available to persons with disabilities can be found at: https://www.votetexas.gov/mobile/voter-with-special-needs.htm
