Helping others understand the electoral process, ensuring we are all informed voters, and promoting civic engagement are fundamental components of a strong, participatory democracy, and charitable nonprofits are uniquely positioned through their credibility and deep knowledge of their communities to inspire voter participation.
As the 2026 midterms approach, many nonprofits are fielding new questions about how this election will unfold and the roles nonprofits can play in nonpartisan civic engagement.
The webinar will provide a roadmap on activities nonprofits can pursue to support civic engagement while remaining nonpartisan. We will walk through what's changing (and what isn't) in the policy landscape and resources contained in the 2026 Voter Engagement Guide. We'll close by hearing from nonprofit leaders about how they're putting these strategies to work in their own communities.
Co-hosted by the National Council of Nonprofits and Nonprofit VOTE.
Speakers:
Sarah Gallagher, Senior Vice President of Special Projects, National Council of Nonprofits
