Join Nonprofit Vote as we explore the important role nonprofits can and should play in voter engagement. This includes EASY and practical ways to get started, as well as how to support the organizations doing this critical work!

Learn best practices for voter registration, understand the legal considerations for nonpartisan activities, and walk through Maine's newest nonprofit toolkit: a Nonprofit & Funder Voter Engagement Guide (coming soon!).

Join MANP, MPC, and Nonprofit Vote to learn more about engaging voters to build a more inclusive democracy!

  • Staff members who work in advocacy and/or communications
  • Funders who are interested in understanding why this matters for our sector and how they can support their own grantees in this work
