REV UP: “Register, Educate, Vote, Use your Power!” 

 

About REV UP

The REV UP Voting Campaign builds the power of the disability vote through a national network of coalitions and organizations.

REV UP’s mission is to build the power of the disability vote through increasing civic engagement in the disability community and improving the accessibility of elections. REV UP stands for “Register, Educate, Vote, Use your Power!” Learn about REV UP’s 2024 Goals.

 

Grassroots, Local Leaders

Although REV UP is a national movement, we believe change happens at the local level. We also believe in the power of grassroots organizing. REV UP has coalitions in twenty states and partners across the country. Meet our state coalitions.

Are you a proud voter?

Tennessee consistently ranks among the worst states for voter participation. Underrepresentation leads to values and priorities being ignored. Help us break the cycle! It all starts with ensuring you're registered to vote. Use the Proud Voter page to register to vote, check your voting status and much more at: https://proudvoter.org/
