Our Volunteer Civic Engagement Project Is Off to a Great Start

We recently launched our Fall civic engagement program where volunteer community leaders committed to have 15,000 conversations with voters across the San Joaquin Valley.

Through weekly phone banks and canvasses, we’ll engage voters about the issues and concerns that matter most to them, whether it’s immigration, housing, incarceration or poverty.

By building power through increased voting, we can directly impact action in the areas voters care about most.

Our clergy and leaders believe this election is crucially important to reprioritizing our most vulnerable communities and concerns. And we believe these sacred conversations with voters, where we’re engaging our neighbors in a relational conversation about our shared values and asking them to vote, is the vehicle we need to get there.

Here are a few moments from our recent launch.
