Community Canvassers

Hiring Immediately; $25–$27/hr + bonuses

We are currently hiring campaign staff to canvass door-to-door on behalf of Planned Parenthood Votes! South Atlantic to rally the vote for candidates who will protect our right to make our own decisions and keep the government out of our health care.

North Carolina’s sweeping abortion ban and restrictions on reproductive healthcare are harming real people. Bans on any healthcare put politics above people and put our futures on the line. We’re working to ensure that everyone can live, thrive, and raise families in healthy communities. Politicians have no business interfering with private healthcare decisions. We’re fighting to stop this government intrusion and put the power back in the hands of the people.
