Do you want to make a difference? Join our team today, and help us build a more just, fair democracy by protecting voting rights and deepening democratic principles for a better future. This is a critical moment for our democracy, and we must make sure that all Americans are able to make our voices heard.

All Oregon Votes is launching a volunteer / non-paid internship program for the spring, summer and fall of 2023-2024. Our team works to educate the public about civic participation, promote voting rights and advocate for election reform in Oregon. Our nonpartisan, grassroots campaign works to reduce partisan politics and makes the candidates accountable to all voters, and not just one political party.

We are leading the way with a 2024 ballot initiative to fully open the primary election to all voters and to level the playing field for all candidates. Learn more at www.AllOregonVotes.org.

As a volunteer, you can gain experience and contribute to the team in the areas that interest you most.

Hours are flexible. Responsibilities include:

  • Educating your friends, family and neighbors about voting rights and the ballot initiative.
  • Engaging in community activities to spread the word about the ballot initiative, including passing out materials and talking to voters and participating in press events and rallies.
  • Collaborating with organizations to conduct these activities.
  • Conducting social media and online outreach to build campaign visibility and assisting with press outreach and events.
  • Professional/technical expertise: Legal & public policy, finance & accounting, development, public relations, administrative & clerical, event planning, data analysis, web/software development or other special skills you have are always needed.
