WHAT CAN I DO?

The Green Party is based on grassroots organizing. We rely on the initiative and dedication of volunteers and activists who take the lead on needed projects and tasks.
This page keeps a current list of identified tasks and projects for which we would love volunteers. Some are already staffed and need replacements or additional help; others are unstaffed and need to be organized. Please look over the list and see if there is anything you'd like to do. If you have special skills or interests for a project not listed on this page, please propose the idea! Just click on the "Volunteer" button at the bottom of the page and let us know how you'd like to help.
