Community Outreach

As part of our community outreach program we offer a variety of nonpartisan, educational presentations at community events, high schools, businesses, non-profit organizations and senior living communities, just to name a few. These presentations are free of charge. Below is a description of the various presentations we offer.

Voter Education Presentation
Voter education presentations cover election specific information (e.g. how a closed primary works), election dates and deadlines, voter registration requirements, the Official Voter Information Guide, what’s a sample ballot, voting at the polls, voting by mail and early voting, accessibility, and bi-lingual voter services. During the presentation individuals can register to vote, complete a request for voting by mail and receive information about working as an Election Day poll worker.

Special Event Voter Information/Registration Table
Outreach coordinators can staff a voter information/registration table at your community event or facility. In addition to registering voters, coordinators will distribute voter education materials, answer questions, collect requests for voting by mail and recruit poll workers.

Voter Registration Drive Presentation
If your organization is interested in conducting a voter registration drive, the Washoe County Registrar of Voters Office can provide a presentation on the requirements for conducting a drive. They will also teach you how to check if each registration form is completed correctly, as well as provide general information about the voting process.
