Help Arab-American voices be heard this November by volunteering to register members of your community to vote. You won't have to do it alone; Join other interested folks from NAAP-NY, the Arab-American Association of NY (AAA-NY) and the ADC-NY!
What we're asking you to do is give up a few hours of your time to register Arab-Americans to vote and to raise awareness in the Arab community about the upcoming elections. We'll provide the materials and pair you with experienced volunteers - all you have to do is show up!
Please contact NYelectionoutreach@naaponline.org to volunteer for any of the following voter registration drives!
If you’d like to setup a voter registration drive in another area and would like materials and information, please email NYelectionoutreach@naaponline.org.
