Emerging Electorate
Emerging Electorate Overview
Recognizing the critical importance of engaging youth voters, immigrant communities, and formerly incarcerated individuals, our emerging electorate program aims to create an inclusive and representative democracy by focusing on these key groups.
We bring together diverse stakeholders, creating a network of support that amplifies the voices and efforts of those working on the ground. FCAF engages and educates funders about the crucial role they can play by supporting the efforts of organizations that engage young people in the political process, educate them about their rights and responsibilities as voters, and encourage their active participation in elections.
In addition, FCAF supports efforts that address the specific barriers immigrant communities face in accessing voting rights and their full civic participation. We also curate educational opportunities for philanthropy to learn about policy that restores voting rights and initiatives that provide the necessary resources that support reintegration into the democratic process.
