Most people participate in elections because someone they know invited them or helped them make sense of the process. Clear, trusted information is what turns uncertainty into confidence. National Voter Education Week gives you a dedicated moment to be that messenger and to build civic habits that last well beyond Election Day.


Daily Themes

What does your community need to vote with confidence? These five nonpartisan daily actions address the most common questions voters face. Uplift all five or pick the ones that fit your capacity and your community’s needs. Each day includes voter FAQs answering the specific questions that come up around that action, messaging guidance to frame it in approachable ways, and plenty of resources to easily uplift this action through digital and in-person formats.

How to Talk About Voter Education

This guide gives partners and creators research backed strategies for how to talk about voter education and upcoming elections. This is a great resource to use if you’re just getting started, need a refresher, or if you’re planning to mostly uplift voter education broadly, across all five daily themes. If you want materials on a more specific action, use the “daily themes” resources above. 

Activation Planning

Whether you’re hosting an event or running a social campaign, this guide helps you choose an activation that fits your team’s capacity and context. See how partners have celebrated NVEW before, how working with other community partners can expand your event, and access media and promo materials to ensure your event is well attended.

NVEW Resources

Know exactly what resource you need? Everything here is ready to use, easily customizable, and nonpartisan. Each piece maps to one of the five daily actions, so you can build a full week of content or focus on the single call to action your audience needs most. Whether you’re celebrating in person, online, or through direct voter contact, you can easily find all our ready-to-use resources here.

Print-at Home Giveaways

Print, post, and hand out. These materials make your activation visible and put voter education directly in people’s hands. One-pagers and the zine give you educational materials to leave with voters, flyers and posters in high traffic areas can promote events and remind voters of important deadlines, and stickers give people something to carry with them. Everything is print ready and sized for a standard office printer, so you don’t need a design budget or a professional print shop to get started.
