Get Out The Vote (GOTV)

NCCED applauds the work that your organization is currently doing to enhance the lives of people in your community. CDCs have impacted more than 25 million people in thousands of communities across the nation.

We know that government is a key partner for our community revitalization efforts. CDCs depend on critical federal programs such as those at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Community Development Financial Institutions, Health and Human Services, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

We also know that community building and organizing is a part of your work. We hope that the enclosed Get Out the Vote (GOTV) Kit will help you educate and mobilize the residents of your community. This Kit is designed to help your nonprofit organization participate in the democratic process, and use it as a vehicle to further empower your community.
