A group of us have been meeting in the Danville area for almost a year now to discuss environmental and other local issues. Although we considered ourselves to be affiliated with KFTC we had not taken the step of applying to KFTC for status as an actual active chapter until Monday night, September 3.
We are proud to announce that we are now officially a bona fide KFTC chapter (the "Wilderness Trace Chapter") with members in Boyle, Garrard, Lincoln and Mercer counties.

This past weekend, Lexington held its annual Roots and Heritage Festival, which is a celebration of African-American heritage, culture and achievement. Many members from the Central Kentucky chapter of KFTC ran a booth on Saturday where they registered 58 voters.
We also had great conversations with festival goers about KFTC's work to restore voting rights to former felons who’ve paid their debt to society and got an incredible 427 postcards signed in support of voting rights.

Today, two KFTC electoral organizers went to St. Stephen's Baptist Church in Louisville to register voters and give out information about voting rights. We registered 30 voters and gave a lot of registration cards for people to take home to family members but they will be returning those cards to the church and they will contact us to pick them up.
