We are excited to launch our Front Porch Conversations by deep canvassing in Anson County. Anson County is one of seven counties nationally that have been labeled by NBC’s County to County series as a bellwether county for the 2022 General election. New Rural Project has known this for years as we’ve seen the turnout rate for young people and voters of color in rural counties decline. In rural communities, you must build relationships around trust and communication and one way to do that is through face-to-face conversations.

First-time deep canvassing? Prior to canvassing on the day of, you will be trained! We have a Zoom virtual training on Thursday, January 27 at 5:00 pm. Sign up using the following link. https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAkf-igqTorGd339B3KXAK7PdJfyHIE8F0C

What you will need on canvass day:

• A mask (we’ll also have PPE if needed)

• Wear a long-sleeved shirt or sweatshirt that you can wear under your white New Rural Project t-shirt

• Wear comfortable walking shoes

• A change-maker attitude

Bring a friend to canvass with you! They can sign up too!
