Fall 2024 - Volunteer Opportunities
Phonebanking
In 2020, DA made over 600,000 calls. Trainings happen frequently and information can be found here: https://www.democratsabroad.
org/phonebanking_training There is also the option to watch a pre-recorded training. Log-in to your DA account to access information and register. Once you've completed the training you'll take a short quiz and get set-up with an account on CallHub (the online platform used to make the calls).
Voter Assistance
We want to host weekly drop-in voter assistance events in Madrid through October but need help organizing and staffing them with volunteers who are trained in voter assistance.
Voter Registration & Ballot Request, Receipt & Return training sessions are available live and recorded: https://www.democratsabroad.
org/voter_assistance_training Learn how to help your friends, family, and other overseas voters register to vote and request their ballots as overseas voters. There are special advantages that apply only to overseas voters -- but specific rules apply. Learn how to use our website, www.VoteFromAbroad.org, and other voter resources to help make registering to vote, getting an overseas ballot and returning their ballots easy, simple, and quick!

Organizing events to attract new members and engage our current members. This can take lots of different forms! Coffee gatherings, documentary screening, etc. Also helping us identify event spaces. We'll help support you, but we really need volunteers to take the lead on some events!
