The Global Disability Caucus has already held quite a few events and has developed an ambitious plan for 2025. To accomplish our goals, however, we need to grow. As a relatively new group we may be small and mighty, but we also admit to needing some help. There is lots of room to be a major contributor, a leader or just to donate an hour here and there.
Currently, we have openings for the following positions:
If you are interested any of these or in being part of leadership, or to be a volunteer, for our voter registration, assistance and GOTV efforts (to help stop the assault on disability rights and protections, we’d love to hear from you. It is critical that we become an important part of the Democrats Abroad team and, specifically, that we ensure optimal accessibility to information and assistance for voters with disabilities.

NOTE: We are currently searching for people interested in helping, in some cases in leading, some specific projects. These include helping to organize members to phonebank or do voter assistance work, to help develop targeted accessibility trainings (we have lots of info),to help identify, monitor, and organize action plans around specific legislation or administrative actions, and more. Please write to [email protected] if you’d like to know more about these opportunities to lead the caucus forward. We also need help that would only require an hour or two a week, so don’t count us out.
One way to learn about volunteer opportunities and find out more from folks who have “been there” is to attend one of the monthly Friday Chat sessions we hold in collaboration with the Senior Caucus. One of our goals is to establish a venue for conversation among members of and allies to our community. You’ll be able to meet some of the coolest members - and hear some great stories. These gatherings are held monthly at 9 am Eastern time on the final Friday of the month. Check the Democrats Abroad Global Calendar to register. We’d love to meet you!
Finally, if you haven’t joined the GDC yet, please do it now. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScTEYGV1W6jJ4NiTahO4W6N3BS2s71LDTG6UyELXLnrMiQI8Q/viewform
