Register Voters in Your State

Voter registration is a critical component of our effort to create a democracy that works for all of us, not just a select few. There are many different ways to go about registering voters, and it can be done on your own, with your Child Action Team, or through local efforts of other organizations (just remember, if you register voters as a volunteer with CDF, it must be a non-partisan effort!).

The following resources should help you get started. If you have any question after reading through the Voter Registration guide and state-specific information, do not hesitate to be in touch with us. Please contact Katharine McFarland with questions: kmcfarland@childrensdefense.org
