Learn How to Promote and Support Voter Registration at Your Community Health Center!

CHCANYS partnered with the League of Women Voters of New York State to deliver two workshops on strategies for supporting voter registration at community health centers. The workshops provide information on:

  • How to partner with your local League of Women Voters Chapter to conduct voter registration drives and get out the vote during Election Day;
  • The process of registering patient voters as well as highlight considerations specific to voting for patients with disabilities, patients who are unhoused, and patients with criminal justice involvement;
  • Promising practices for engaging a diverse group of voters in Get Out The Vote (GOTV) efforts; and
  • How to address challenges encountered at the polls.

Watch this workshop learn about resources available to community health centers based in NYC and watch this workshop to learn about resources available to community health centers throughout New York State, outside of NYC.

Health Centers can also connect with their local chapter of League of Women Voters to promote voter registration. The League of Women Voters are excited to partner with health centers and would love to be connected to provide support, resources, and send materials like voter registration toolkits. Please reach out to jni@chcanys.org if you would like to be connected to the League of Women Voters.
