Volunteer Now


Kent Street Coalition offers opportunities for concerned citizens to subscribe to Action Alerts, attend live meetings, and more. Some volunteers have come together to form informal Working Groups that perform in-depth analysis and lead initiatives around specific issues. Others prefer to participate in particular ways across a variety of issues through Action Teams.

Abortion Freedom Project

The Abortion Freedom Project is an action-oriented group of volunteers committed to reproductive freedom in both access to healthcare and in the right to bodily autonomy.We support NH’s abortion providers and advocates who defend, protect and advance reproductive freedom as well as political candidates who champion it.

Healthcare Working Group

Our work focuses on teaming with multiple other advocacy groups and stakeholders. We write LTEs, provide testimony to and lobby our legislature, and engage the public on the above themes.

Judiciary Project

The Judiciary Project aims to educate NH citizens about the critical, if far too often overlooked, role of our judicial system in our daily lives. With the US Supreme Court turning whole areas of the law over to the state courts, it is more important than ever that we have a fair, independent, non-partisan state supreme court. In NH, as in many states and at the federal level, judges are nominated and confirmed by those we elect: Governors, Executive Councilors (unique to NH), Senators and Presidents. We want people to realize that when they vote for these offices they are also voting – by proxy – for judges who will be deciding our rights and our futures.

Education Working Group

The members of the Education Working Group share a strong commitment to the principles that public education is a cornerstone of our democracy and that every young person in NH should have access to an excellent, comprehensive, inclusive and safe K-12 public education.  Through discussion at our zoom meetings, we educate one another about upcoming legislative and rulemaking proposals (primarily at the state level), strategize actions to take in response, and reach out to the community to inform and encourage their involvement.

Canvassing

We recruit and train canvassers to support local Down Ballot candidates. During an election cycle we plan and execute canvassing events, usually on weekends.

Community Outreach

We connect with local activist groups to provide education, introductions, and support based on Kent Street’s years of experience.

Letters to the Editor

We help individuals across the state write and submit Letters to the Editor to a variety of newspapers. The team offers support and amplification of published letters.

Postcard Group

When KSC recieves requests for postcard writers, the request is approved by the appropriate KSC working group. A call is then put out for writers. Cards can be written in your home, at postcard parties or group gatherings.

Visibility

Communications

We create, manage, and publish KSC communications in support of KSC objectives and teams. Communications platforms include email, Social Media, documents, and our website.
