• Neighborhood Leader Program•
Help Democrats get elected. Increase voter turnout.
What is a Neighborhood Leader?
We know that direct contact from neighbors is the most effective way to turn out our progressive Democratic voters. It’s also the best way to communicate our values and cut through the media echo machine. Neighborhood Leaders (NLs) support the core of our mission.
NLs help campaigns that embody Democratic values win elections by contacting 35 or so of their Democratic neighbors each election cycle. By providing the 'slate' of candidates to Democrats, they nourish relationships & support the habit of voting.
Won’t you join us and help promote our Democratic values and candidates in YOUR neighborhood?
