The Campaign registered nearly 160,000 Black, working-class, and young voters in cities such as Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati. Our endorsement committee (made up of students, formerly incarcerated individuals, faith leaders, public school parents, and childcare providers) backed candidates in competitive congressional races, as well as sheriff and prosecutor races. Yet, challenges like lower voter turnout and restrictive voting policies persist, underscoring the need for continued grassroots organizing.

In 2024, we will work to expand the electorate and close the racial and age gap amongst registered voters in Ohio. We plan to register 145,000 voters in Black communities and 35,000 young voters on college campuses, and mobilize them and more by knocking on 1,000,000 doors to reach 250,000 voters.

Formed in 2007, the Ohio Organizing Collaborative (OOC) is a grassroots organization uniting community groups, student associations, and faith organizations with policy institutes and labor unions across Ohio. It is our mission to organize membership bases of everyday Ohioans for racial, social, and economic justice in our state.
