As a poll greeter, you are the last source of guidance and information before voters cross the threshold to the ballot box. Your presence matters.
Plan to attend a 1-hour poll greeting training where you learn how to greet, guide, and support our voters with needed information. Your trainer walks you through a step-by-step process and best practices to make the greatest impact on voters. You’ll have the opportunity to sign up for your best day(s) and time(s) with our Mobilize app.

Bring your laptops and fully-charged cellphones for this in-person phone bank session! We will be making calls to increase voter participation throughout Buncombe County during these regularly scheduled phone banks on Monday evenings and Tuesday mornings.
If you don’t have a laptop, we have several at HQ, so just be sure to bring your email login information so we can get you started. If you already have an Action ID User ID & password, bring those as well. (If you don’t have one, we’ll help you get set up with one after you arrive.)
After making calls at HQ, you’ll be encouraged to continue making calls from the comfort of your home afterwards.
We will have plenty of refreshments on hand, and we hope you’ll keep coming back, because this phone banking community is growing and having lots of fun!
Who should attend: Democrats and left-leaning unaffiliated voters welcome!

Our greatest need is for advocates who provide emotional support on our 24/7 crisis line and offer hospital accompaniment to survivors of recent assaults. Once volunteers have completed the 20-hour required training, they can sign up for on-call shifts. Volunteers are always on-call with a staff member as backup. In order to protect advocate privacy Our Voice utilizes a call service which routes calls to your personal phone so you can be at home during your shift. Before filling out the application please read over the volunteer advocate position description.
Be a minimum of 18 years old
Have reliable transportation
Have a reliable cell phone
Have reliable internet/email
Take crisis line calls during assigned shifts
Assist callers in crisis and provide clients with appropriate referrals to Our Voice services or other community agencies.
Go to the hospital with survivors after a sexual assault
Respond to hospital accompaniment calls within 30 minutes and provide all survivors of sexual assault information regarding options and procedures.
Take a minimum of 2 shifts each month
Volunteers will be able to sign up for shifts through the schedule on our online portal. Shifts are weekdays 5pm-8am and weekends/holidays 8am-8pm or 8pm-8am.
Participate in continued education at least once a year
Continued education trainings will be offered twice a year and advertised through email and our online portal.
Complete a 20 hour advocate training prior to taking shifts
This training is a requirement in order to maintain advocate privilege. We ask volunteers to commit to a minimum of 6 months on the crisis line following training.
