Our Civic Engagement Strategic Plan
Make your voice count in 2026

Ready to get engaged? 2026 is a big year to make our voices heard—and to follow in the footsteps of those who risked a lot, sometimes their lives, to make voting accessible for all.

 

The Greater Huachuca Area Branch NAACP is committed to protecting voting rights, strengthening civic participation, and ensuring our community has what it needs to be represented—fairly and fully—at every level of government.

Our focus: Nonpartisan. Community-centered. Action-oriented.

 

Our Goals:

  • Strengthen and protect voter turnout

  • Ensure accurate voting information

  • Mobilize youth and first-time voters

  • Candidate accountability

  • Recruit poll workers and monitors

 

Objectives:

  • Increase voter registration and turnout

  • Provide voter education

  • Strengthen community partnerships

  • Develop leaders and volunteers

  • Expand access to voting

  • Influence policy and accountability

 

What we’re doing in 2026

 

Primary Election Timeline

  • Early Voting Begins: June 24

  • Early Ballots Mailed:  June 24

Voter engagement and education

We will host community sessions to help residents understand:

  • why local elections matter (schools, public safety, infrastructure, healthcare access)

  • how voting rights are protected and where challenges can show up

  • how to spot misinformation and rely on verified sources

  • who are the candidates 

  • what will encourage you to cast your vote for them

 

We want to partner with you

  • Sky Island Regional Partnership

  • Faith Leaders

  • High Schools and Colleges

  • Business Owners

  • Devin 9

  • Community Organizations (Masons, Rotary, and others)
