The Cranston public library has announced their participation in a national, nonpartisan effort to increase the political participation of people with disabilities. This effort, known as the REV UP Campaign, has been designated for July 16-20, 2018 as National Disability Voter Registration Week in advance of the November elections.
The REV UP Campaign, coordinated nationally by the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), focuses on voter registration, education, and engagement. REV UP stands for Register! Educate! Vote! Use your Power!
The Cranston public library will partner with the City of Cranston Canvassing Department for an NDVRW voter sign up event at the Central Library on Tuesday, July 17 from 10 a.m.-12 p.m. The Central Library is located at 140 Sockanosset Cross Road.
Below are the top three reasons to pay close attention to the REV UP Campaign, according to a press release:
AAPD is pleased to once again partner with EveryLibrary to bring National Disability Voter Registration Week 2018 to libraries across the country. In 2017, over 150 libraries across 46 states participated in NDVRW through programming, outreach, public education, and voter registration partnerships or on-site services.
