Why Bother?
Well, elections are one of the many ways to become involved in addressing issues that are important to everyone involved with your Drop-in and community. Elections are also a great time to start up conversations and actions around certain topics and issues, and that involvement can keep going after the elections.

We’ve provided election resources and links for finding further information, as well as ideas about how to engage and assist Drop-in participants with the voting process. Including a letter template for Confirmation of Address that Drop-Ins can provide program participants who regularly attend their program for food and/or services, but who do not have a permanent address.
