Phone Banking
OCAPICA's Policy Program creates phone banking events to collect voter data and inspire people to vote.

Does helping to empower and mobilize Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) voters in Orange County sound interting to you?

Why?

Calling voters allows them to ask questions about the voting process.

By providing bilingual and culturally competent voting services, we can increase voter turnout.

By being informed voters, the AANHPI community will be empowered voters.

Experiences
Joyce Kim: "Very enlightening. A reality check of seeing the amount of Asian Americans that don't vote within our community."
Ruby Ramirez: "Enlightening because I realized how few people are actually engaged in politics. As a non-profit organization we are trying to encourage those who have the right to vote to vote. Some didn't know about the primary. We called morning, afternoon, and evening."
