Voter Protection Corps

Our Work

At the Voter Protection Corps (VPC), we are dedicated to safeguarding democracy by protecting voter access and election integrity. Operating through two complementary organizations—the Voter Protection Corps Foundation (C3) and the Voter Protection Corps Education and Advocacy Fund (C4)—we address the multifaceted challenges facing voters and elections in the United States. Together, we empower voters, combat disinformation, and proactively respond to systemic threats.

What We Do

Voter access and election integrity are under constant attack. Through year-round efforts, we:

  • Combat AI-driven and traditional disinformation to ensure voters receive accurate information.
  • Support state and local coalitions in developing and implementing voter protection strategies.
  • Tackle systemic election challenges such as restrictive voting laws, underfunded election offices, and administrative burdens on election officials.
  • Prepare for emerging threats, including changes in election funding and policies at the federal and state levels.

Our Approach

Our work is rooted in a combination of foresight, expertise, and action:

    • Proactive Planning: Early identification of challenges and threats allows us to align resources, build coalitions, and develop tailored solutions for each election cycle.
    • Building Expertise: Through the National Voter Protection Council, we unite seasoned election law experts, administrators, and campaign alumni to drive effective strategies.
    • Data-Driven Solutions: By analyzing past trends and developing predictive models, we anticipate challenges and allocate resources efficiently to address potential risks.
