community civic engagement program
Help Build Stronger and Healthier Communities
In collaboration with The National Association of Community Health Centers and AltaMed, Vot-ER’s Community Civic Engagement Program (CCEP) is our flagship small grant program that expands non-partisan civic engagement through voter registration and turnout initiatives in community health centers.
Together with Community Health Centers, Federally Qualified Health Centers, and other similar organizations, we promote civic engagement using trusted messengers –– ultimately building stronger and healthier communities.
Vot-ER’s CCEP program offers small grants ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 to participating partners, enabling them to integrate civic engagement initiatives into their existing healthcare center operations. These efforts include non-partisan voter registration and voter turnout drives.
