Resources for AAP Chapters

AAP chapters can participate in nonpartisan voter engagement activities, including voter registration, voter education, and Get Out the Vote efforts. As the election approaches, AAP chapters may wish to:

• Include voting related messaging and election information in chapter communications, including information on deadlines, and absentee/mail-in ballots.
• Encourage member participation in state candidate forums, including publicizing dates, times, and virtual locations
• Create a list of state-specific candidate questions for members to ask of candidates.
• Utilize social media to provide public-facing, nonpartisan messaging about the importance of this year's election for children, including how important this election is in addressing health iniquities in your state
• Work with residency programs and coalition partners in your state on local GOTV projects 
• Publicize voter assistance services in your state, such as organizations offering translation or transportation assistance
• Promote voter protection resources, such as those offered by 866-OUR-VOTE
• Above all, remind members and families what is at stake in this election for children and how raising their voices now is so critically important. Children are counting on us; vote like their future depends on it.
