Skagit Doorknocking for No Hate in WA State

This is a special event to join canvassers in Mount Vernon for a fun evening of knocking doors! Details on location will be sent after you register to knock, most likely we will meet at the river walk or a nearby park in the neighborhoods! What to expect New to canvassing? That’s completely okay! No experience is required, and we’ll start every shift with a short training so everyone feels prepared before heading to the doors. We’ll meet together at a local location, go over the basics of the conversation, show everyone how to record who they spoke with at the door, and get paired up before heading out to canvass in the community. For your first shift, you can shadow an experienced canvasser so you can hear how they talk with folks at the door and get comfortable before jumping into conversations yourself. Most of the shift will be spent walking through a neighborhood and having short conversations with voters. You do not need to memorize a script or be an expert. We’ll provide the information, materials, and support you need. Please bring: A fully charged smartphone Comfortable walking shoes Weather-appropriate clothing Water and anything else you may need while walking Additional details, resources, talking points, MiniVAN instructions, and arrival information will be sent after signup so you have everything you need to feel prepared for your shift.
