Due to the serious decline in the amount of voter registrations because of the nationwide shutdown because of COVID-19, this edition of the Transformer and the work of the Transformative Justice Coalition for the next several weeks will be focused on encouraging and supporting voter registration.


"The Fight for the Vote 2020! Our March to the Ballot Box"

Since the onset of COVID-19 in the United States, voter registration has dramatically dropped in 2020. Join The Transformative Justice Coalition & the Voting Rights Alliance Monday, May 4th 2020 from 8:00 PM - 9:30 PM EDT for a nonpartisan Facebook Live TeleTown Hall on "The Fight for the Vote 2020! Our March to the Ballot Box".

This election process will be severely hindered unless we develop strategies for strong voter outreach and empowerment.

Topics to be discussed include: Upcoming primary elections; robust voter outreach and registration strategies; media and special outreach to purged voters and those on inactive lists; creating voter contact systems; and, more.

This election process will be severely hindered unless we develop strategies for strong voter outreach and empowerment.
