As a result of this campaign approach, the ACLU of Nevada’s organizing model focuses on developing volunteer leaders for the civil liberties movement, mobilizing grassroots support for our policy advocacy goals, and educating Nevada residents about voting rights through person-to-person field contacts, community meetings, and educational presentations. The ACLUNV’s organizing work is intended to engage both existing ACLU members/supporters/volunteers in the movement and to reach new constituencies.
