Are you looking for an innovative, young, BIPOC centered organization to complete your service learning hours at? Look no further! MOVE Texas partners with high schools, colleges, and universities to provide meaningful community service to help enrich students’ holistic learning experiences, foster a sense of civic responsibility, and directly support community action.
Our work is not about one election or one candidate. It’s about empowering young people to exercise their right to vote and fundamentally changing the electorate to build long term power, advance progressive policies, and build a better Texas.
Texas wasn’t a battleground state until young people made it one. In 2018, we registered 29,667 new young voters and helped 73% of them cast a ballot in the midterm election. In 2019, we registered an additional 25,000 young people to vote and mobilized thousands more to turnout to vote. In 2020, we registered 50,846 voters during a global pandemic! AND we saw our results pay off as young Texans led the country in youth voter turnout, during a global pandemic. 👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾
We’re seeking community-oriented individuals to join our efforts and help us reach our statewide goal of registering voters and mobilizing those voters to the polls. Our team also works to mobilize young people to promote awareness and take action on issues of local democracy, criminal legal reform, and climate justice. We also believe in and practice care-based organizing, and conduct “wellness calls” during times of crisis (like COVID and Texas freeze) to promote solidarity, community, and healing justice.
