Voter Registration and Canvassing, Habitat for Humanity - Regal Acres, Naples

This will be a canvassing event and we will use Minivan. We will train you how to use Minivan on your phone in the training Thursday, June 20. We will ask members of households a few basic questions (answers to be recorded in Minivan) and hand out VR and VBM forms. Don’t worry that you can’t handle the technology. If I can do it, anyone can do it. As a reference point, I can’t work my TV remote and I can do Minivan. ;) We will meet in a nearby parking lot and gather our supplies and any last minute instructions and then head out to predefined “turfs” in pairs. Please bring a hat, water, a pen, and your phone. Please note, there is no ready access to bathrooms. Wear sunscreen.
