Phone banking and text banking with the ACLU empowers volunteers to contact voters to mobilize support for key civil rights and educate citizens about their voting rights.

While the virtual phone bank is live, the ACLU of Indiana advocacy team will host 30-minute Zoom orientation/training sessions to help volunteers navigate how-to phone bank and answer questions.

ACLU of Indiana phone banks are conducted remotely. No prior experience is necessary. You only need a phone, computer, and internet access to participate from the comfort of your home. You will use provided scripts to help voters register, inform them of what’s on their ballot or encourage them to turn out to the polls.

Once trained, volunteers may make calls on their own schedule, while the phone bank link is active, (and so long as calls are made within the hours of 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. local time of person being called).
