DUUC’s UU the Vote team is working with the Center for Common Ground’s Reclaim Our Vote (ROV) campaign. ROV is a grassroots, primarily volunteer-run campaign that focuses on increasing BIPOC voter turnout through post-carding, texting, and phone banking. Join the 50+ DUUC members writing postcards with our take-home postcarding packets! Packets include all the materials and instructions you need to write 20 postcards, postage is provided by DUUC! Pick up and drop off available in Kreves Hall on Sundays after service through October 2024. “Postcarding Party” bins are also available with all the materials needed to write 100 postcards. Request your bin at the UU the Vote table!

MomsRising is a network of people united by the goal of building a more family-friendly America. Here’s all the details: Complete the request form linked below. MomsRising will send a packet of pre-addressed, pre-stamped postcards in early September along with some brief instructions. All you’ll need to do is write a quick note of encouragement on each and drop them in the mail.

Every phone bank will include a brief training on the phone banking system and support throughout the call for any questions / situations that arise as you help to UU the Vote. We stay gathered on zoom during calls and use an auto dialer through our computers which only puts us through to people who answer their phones. Our own phone numbers aren’t involved. Those who volunteer describe the phonebanks as faithful, fulfilling, and fun!

The Environmental Voter Project identifies millions of non-voting environmentalists and turns them into consistent voters. Using every election as an opportunity to change voting behavior, we track our voters’ long-term voting habits to maximize the cumulative impact of our work.

Climate Changemakers is a modern climate advocacy network built for busy productive people. We advance systems-level climate solutions through strategic advocacy for policy and key electoral priorities.

Phone Banks with Environmental Voter Project

We respect your time as a volunteer. Every action you take with EVP is backed by research, and we regularly brief you on the impact of your efforts. We’ll start with an overview of our phone banking program and the scripts we’ll be using, then we’ll get to work calling voters. If you’ve already been trained, you’ll receive the Hubdialer credentials at the beginning of the Zoom call and be able to jump right into calling. If you’re a first-time EVP phone banker, we’ll have a full training at the beginning of the call. All you need to participate is a (landline or cell) phone, web-enabled computer or tablet, and yourself!

This Fall, we’re hitting the road!  UU the Vote is supporting and traveling to many of our priority states to build relationships, knock doors and grow our collective power. Our Fall Mobilization is an effort to provide meaningful in person voter contact in collaboration with State Action Networks and grassroots partner organizations. We see these events as opportunities to nourish and back up local organizing infrastructure by providing boots on the ground and bringing our people into deeper community with each other and folks’ we partner with.
