YCV staff and volunteers reach voters in the communities where they live and work across the state of NC through high traffic canvassing, clipboarding, tabling at events, group and classroom presentations in high schools and on college campuses, relational organizing, GOTV calls and text messaging, and 1-1 conversations with voters.
You Can Vote (YCV) was founded following Shelby County v. Holder, 133 S. Ct. 2612, the Supreme Court decision rolling back key protections of the Voting Rights Act. Our mission is to train and mobilize volunteers to educate, register, and empower all North Carolina citizens to successfully cast their ballot. Our programs combat discriminatory election laws by building a broader and more engaged electorate across the state of NC. YCV serves populations whose votes have been historically suppressed including people of color, low-income people, people who are currently and formerly incarcerated, people with disabilities, and young people.
Budget Size: Medium: Previous year budget $1M - $3M
Priority Issues: YCV occupies a unique position in the NC voting rights landscape as a strictly nonpartisan organization that focuses exclusively on voters. We are a campaign without a candidate and we do not take stances or advocate for specific issues aside from voting rights. YCV’s nonpartisan approach combined with the quality and consistency of voter services allows us to partner with and gain access to spaces that are not available to partisan organizations, such as schools and detention facilities. Our programs focus on voting mechanics & civic education: what's on the ballot, when to vote, where to vote, levels of government and connecting issues that matter to voters with the offices that influence them.

Budget Size: Micro: Previous year budget < $20,000
Priority Issues: As a charter of the Young Democrats of America, our primary focus in voter registration is to gather registrations from individuals aged 17 to 35, particularly on high school and college campuses. We emphasize not including any issues when encouraging individuals to register. Some school campuses, specifically high schools, may be more reserved in permitting partisan organizations to conduct voter registration drives. Therefore, we strive to ensure we are allowed on all campuses.
