Voter Registration

Grassroots community organizations shoulder much of the work it takes to reach underrepresented people, ensure that all of us have the opportunity to vote, and provide those who cannot vote with other ways to influence the policies that impact their daily lives.

Voter Education

Our voter engagement programs connect underrepresented communities with the democratic process through increasing convenience, access to information, and direct conversations with trusted messengers to find the cultural relevance of civic life for everyone (not just voters) and making each interaction with a potential voter more meaningful, memorable, and trustworthy.

Voter Turnout

Our elections systems will be updated ahead of the November elections, with new ballot marking devices that also produce hand marked paper ballots. With so many elections, so little attention from the media, and frequent changes to the voting process, it can feel overwhelming to get informed and cast our votes with confidence.

Worker’s Rights, Racial, and Economic Justice

Tennessee is one of the most challenging states to vote in. It has one of the country’s lowest voter turnout and voter registration rates, and voters of color have especially seen their power diluted even further this year. After 2022  redistricting, at least 75% of all Shelby County voters will experience some change in their polling locations and districts.
