Signup and Reporting
Once trained, use the voter outreach calendar to find events with available shifts. Positions are listed for leads, assistants, and shadows, who will be mentored. Leads have special training and responsibility for the event. Then sign up!
Our League must report our volunteer activity each year. Please use the button above to log your individual volunteer hours.
Lead volunteers at voter outreach events should also track and report the activity at the event. Please print a log form to use at the event, then enter the data online afterwards.
Find Quicklinks on our homepage, too.

Senior Liaisons
Senior liaisons “adopt” a senior center or senior living complex and work to educate their residents and visitors about voting issues.
Liaisons identify a contact at the senior center/housing complex who can authorize their actions. Liaisons ensure that relevant posters, flyers, and forms are available for residents and visitors. They may submit a brief article about voting requirements and upcoming elections for publication in the local newsletter. Liaisons may be able to arrange a time to assist seniors with online voter registration or help answer questions about what they need to register or to request an absentee ballot. Shirley Haidinger is the lead on this project.
