Meet the League's new intern, Nate Calderon of Sacramento,
California. Nate is a senior at Rio Americano High School and part of a four-year program called CIVITAS ,
which focuses on civic education and involvement in the community. I
chose to intern at LWVC because I want to help increase the number of
voters in California. In his spare time, Nate works at the Del Paso
Heights Golf Course and loves to play soccer.
