Organizing for love, dignity, and liberation

One week until Election Day, and in many states you can vote right now.

Early voting rules vary by state and county, so check your local schedule and make your plan:

Where are you voting?
When are you going? (Early if you can.)
How are you getting there?
Who is going with you? Voting is a community act.
What is on your ballot?

Faith in Action is on the ground in Alabama, Virginia, Florida, Colorado, and more, training poll chaplains and running Souls to the Polls events. Faith in Florida alone has more than 30 events.

11 days until Election Day, and our network has been busy.

In Miami, more than 50 Faith in Action organizers and faith leaders gathered for Shared Future’s Building Our Future gathering. They practiced telling their stories and built the power to win a path to citizenship for the people they love.

And on this week’s Souls to the Polls call, faith leaders traced the tradition back to the Black church and shared what is working right now. Ballot parties. Voter Sundays. Barbershops and motorcycle clubs.

Different cities. Same belief. The people we love belong here, and every voice deserves to be counted.

Count Me In. November 3rd.

Bishop Dwayne Royster, Executive Director of Faith in Action, has made his voting plan. Have you?

His plan is simple: the day, the time, the location, and who is going with him. He also worked through his ballot, learning who the candidates are and what is on it.

Now he is inviting you and your family to do the same.

Make your plan today. Then share it with someone you love.

Count Me In. November 3rd.

How did we get here? 3 weeks until Election Day and we’re taking a look back.

Episode 1: You had to own land to vote. There was no secret ballot. And Black men and women were granted the right on paper, then blocked from it for nearly a century.

Every one of those barriers was put there on purpose. And every one was torn down by people who refused to accept it.

November 3rd is our turn. Count Me In.

Meet Adolis Ramos, a community organizer with the Essex County Community Organization in Massachusetts.

As an immigrant, Adolis knows firsthand the importance of having a place to call home. Through her work advocating for fair housing, she reminds us that we all have a role to play in creating a better world.

Because change doesn’t happen on its own. It happens when people like Adolis step up and take action.

Rev. Dr. Cassandra Gould, our Deputy Director, has a message for you.

Thank you for showing up to our Tuesday Count Me In calls. Now it is time to take it to the polls.

Join us for Souls to the Polls - collective action at the ballot box with our faith and community partners.

We are back with our Count Me In election protection training series.

This week faith leaders from across the country came together to talk about presence and protection at the polls — because knowing your rights before Election Day is one thing. Knowing what to do when something goes wrong is another.

Election Day is coming. We are making sure our communities are ready.
