Your Vote Is Your Voice

Be part of building a safer and better North Carolina. Are you concerned with safety and violence in your community? Do you want better programs for youth and more job training opportunities? This year even a handful of people can decide a local election. Unfortunately it is predicted that many people won’t exercise their right to vote this year.

NCGV is looking for volunteers interested in encouraging their neighbors to vote. We will be holding Community Action Days between October 9 - October 30. We will supply the training, the materials, and anything else you need (we'll feed you too!) No experience necessary, just a desire to see safer communities for our families and children.

Your vote is your voice. If those of us concerned with crime and safety don't speak out -- who will?

Just fill out your information below and we will contact you with more details.

Please provide the best email address to reach you.

Please indicate times you are available. Our Community Action Days typically take 4 hours.

Please list any questions or comments you have. We will respond as quickly as possible.
