Workshops
September 8th, 2025: Planning Voter Engagement Events with Limited Time and Resources
Mobilizing your community to register, get educated, and turn out to vote can be a lot of work, and we know not all of our partners have extensive time and funding to put on extravagant events. National Voter Education Week and Vote Early Day have teamed up to give you a training session that will help teams with limited capacity and resources plan and execute effective activations for the Civic Holidays! Learn how to set clear goals and identify your target audience, where you can get access to in-kind support, and how to build capacity through partnerships and volunteer recruitment. We’ll also share our recommendations for using free resources and toolkits, as well as replicable activation ideas that can be tailored to meet the unique needs of your community. Perfect for small teams and volunteer-led organizations, this session will equip you with tools, strategies, and creative ideas to make a big impact!
Register here for our workshop, which will be held from 1:00-2:00 PM ET on September 8th.
September 10th, 2025: Working with the Media and Leveraging Social Media
Taking advantage of local media outlets and social media networks can dramatically increase your event’s visibility and impact. National Voter Education Week, Vote Early Day, and Election Hero Day will join for an interactive workshop that will teach you how to reach out to traditional media outlets, craft media pitches that will get noticed, and effectively use your social media network to promote your civic engagement celebrations. We’ll discuss actionable strategies you can use to amplify your voice, and resources that you can utilize to reach your community.
Register here for our workshop, which will be held from 2:00-3:00 PM on September 10th.
September 30th, 2025: Vote Early Day 101
This year, Vote Early Day partners will organize in person and online actions to empower their friends or neighbors to vote early nationwide. We hope you will join our September workshop to learn best practices and gain access to incredible tools to help your organization build an engaging and impactful celebration this fall.
