Position: Vote by Mail (VBM) Manager
Reports to: Managing Director of Program
Organization Description: For the last 17 years, the Voter Participation Center (VPC), a 501(c)(3) civic engagement organization, has led the way in recognizing and harnessing the potential power of the Rising American Electorate (RAE) – unmarried women, people of color, and young people – as a vital voting bloc. VPC has positioned itself as the leading experimental and scientific civic engagement organization by accumulating more than a decade's worth of knowledge and experience in registering and turning out the new majority of eligible voters. VPC's programs have consistently proven to be some of the most impactful and cost-effective programs—and to date VPC has registered over 4.5 million Americans to vote. VPC continues to innovate with its approach and techniques to impact greater civic engagement, registration, and turnout. VPC's approach to programs incorporates a rigorous approach to data analysis, incorporating randomized trials, and other methods and technologies to determine effect.
The Center for Voter Information (CVI) is a separate but affiliated progressive 501(c)(4) nonprofit that works to engage and persuade both the RAE as well as the broader electorate. CVI also engages in rigorous work to determine net effect and uses other technologies to determine the goals reached in each of its program areas.
