Democracy Capacity Building - State Ecosystem Mapping
Help map democracy capacity efforts in the states
Posted August 3, 2022
Background & Context
We’re doing a 50-state map of organizations on the ground doing state or local level advocacy work and/or democracy capacity building with their local constituents (voter registration, Get Out The Vote programs and other civic engagement programs).
You don’t have to know the groups in advance, just do some simple googling to explore the landscape on the ground in the state.
Work & Deliverables
We will provide instructions and a data input form and you’ll be asked to collect background information about the organizations you find, including links to the organization’s website and their social media accounts. We suggest keeping your list to around 10 different organizations, and we believe the work for one state should not take more than a few hours. We'll post our highest priority states first, and then open up the rest of the states for volunteers.
