For candidates and volunteers in target races, we also provide access to our private, secure online community and resource library. We vet candidates and volunteers carefully. The vetting process can take up to 1-2 weeks, during which time, we may reach out to you for additional information by email or phone. Please respond promptly to follow-up inquiries to expedite the process.
