Get Out the Vote (GOTV)
GOTV: The right to vote is at the core of American democracy. That is why Getting out the Vote is a key pillar for Emgage.
Voter Registration: Voting laws can be confusing and hard to navigate; that is why Emgage makes it a priority to help and register as many Muslim Americans as we can, and engage with them until election day. Each state chapter runs voter registration and absentee ballot drives to ensure that everyone has an accessible way to exercise their right to vote. Not sure if you’re registered to vote? You can find out here!

Phone banking and Canvassing: Person-to-person connection is still the single most effective tool of mobilization. We prioritize phone banking and door knocking as key components of our GOTV efforts. Our access to registered voter data allows us to micro-target specific localities where Muslim voters can have the most impact.

2) Internships: Our interns learn about effective issue advocacy and community mobilization in addition to learning about the inner-workings of non-profit work. If you are interested, you can apply here!
