Nonprofit Vote to Hold Webinar on 2017 Voter Engagement 

Although the 2016 elections are over, 2017 is an important year for local municipal elections. Local elections are critical for determining policies in your community, but because they don’t receive as much attention as mid-terms and presidential elections, they often have disappointing voter turnouts. Would you like to improve the turnout and recognition of your local elections? Nonprofit Vote is holding their first webinar of 2017 on Creating a Voter Engagement Plan and Timeline for Your Nonprofit on Thursday, February 9th at 2:00 PM EST. In this webinar, you will learn about planning and voter engagement tactics, and all attendees will receive a 2017 timeline handout and a planning worksheet. To RSVP, visit www.nonprofitvote.org.
