Volunteer for A Local Candidate’s Campaign

Content: This is a great way to learn more about what your community is looking for in its leadership and get to know the lay of the land. And if you’re interested in running for local office one day, there’s no better way to learn how to run a campaign for a local position than to join one yourself. You’ll get to know the candidate more personally than you would for a congressional race and see up close what the day-to-day of a local campaign is like. Next time you see a yard sign with a candidate’s name or hear about someone running for city council in your town, check them out. Read their story, their platform, and sign up to volunteer. If they don’t have a volunteer sign up option on their website, call them or send them an email letting them know you’re interested in volunteering. Trust me, they won’t say no. Your local government needs your voice. These are just a few ways to start getting involved and after you start getting involved, who knows? You just might want to run for office yourself.
