    Description

    Get out the Youth Vote

    Our democracy only works when we all participate. Young people are the largest and most diverse group of potential voters in the country, with our own values and our own ideas. Yet, our generation isn’t showing up to vote in high enough numbers.

    That’s why the Student PIRGs’ New Voters Project is hiring Field Organizers to run our non-partisan voter registration and get-out-the-vote campaign in states across the country in the Fall of 2024.

    KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

    • Run a non-partisan voter registration and turnout campaign in a campus community. 
    • Recruit and train a team of volunteers to help register 18-29 year olds, collect pledges to vote, and contact all of these young people to turn out the vote on Election Day.
    • Educate students and train new leaders. Campus Organizers teach citizenship and organizing skills. Campus Organizers also oversee an internship program, through which students can earn academic course credit for their work to boost youth voter engagement.
    • Build a coalition. Campus Organizers work with student volunteers and interns to build a diverse, invested coalition of organizations and people to boost youth voter turnout.
