Strategy Initiative
The NCNW Eight-State/All-State Strategy is an initiative designed to significantly increase voter turnout, specifically among Black women and young voters, ages 17-24. This strategy focuses on activating and mobilizing our NCNW Members, Sections, Affiliates, and Associates across the country to ensure the number of voters will increase since 2020, the last presidential election. The initiative will start out with eight battleground states and will be replicated in all states (33 NCNW states) where there are NCNW Sections.
