This year, you can be part of a historic struggle and get paid to direct a voter registration office with the Community Voters Project

For much of our country's history millions of Americans were, by law, denied the right to vote. Thanks to years of work by dedicated activists, we’ve eliminated most legal restrictions denying certain Americans the right to vote.

But there are still impediments preventing many Americans from exercising this basic right and getting their voices heard

Historically underrepresented communities are consistently kept at a disadvantage due to a lack of political power. Voter registration is a critical first step toward restoring political equality to historically underrepresented communities.

Make an impact and get paid in this historic election year by working to register voters with the Community Voters Project.
