Given where we are in this election year, it’s important we prepare for the fights ahead. How do we do that? By registering ourselves and our communities to vote.

Join us to discuss everything you need to know to conduct local voter registration.

We’ll dive into the ins and outs of AAUW’s voter registration portal, provide insights, and share practices for maximizing your voter registration efforts — equipping you with the right tools to make a meaningful impact.

When We All Vote’s Managing Director of National Organizing will share some tips and tricks on holding voter registration events.

The session will be recorded and shared with everyone who registers. And if you can’t make it, join When We All Vote on Thursday, August 1, at 8 PM. for their National Voter Registration Day/Week of Action training.
