All branches have the same mission and vision statement. As it says on our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coraopolisnaacp.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, \u201cOur mission is to achieve equity, political rights, and social inclusion by advancing policies and practices that expand human and civil rights, eliminate discrimination, and accelerate the well-being, education, and economic security of Black people and all persons of color.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All NAACP branches are volunteer organizations so we only meet once a month, and when you deal with volunteers, you take what you can get and work with it. There are a couple of things we want to do this year. We definitely want to get people registered to vote, get them <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to actually<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> vote, and get our boots on the ground as much as we can. We want to find out if people are registered and if they plan on voting this year \u2014 not just in November, but in the primaries as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em><b>People don&#8217;t understand that local elections are sometimes <\/b><b>even more important <\/b><b>than national ones because a lot of things happen locally that affect you in your daily life, more so than on a national scale.\u00a0<\/b><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another big initiative we have on the books \u2014\u00a0for May \u2014\u00a0is a health fair. We\u2019ll invite different organizations, like the American Red Cross, to do free blood pressure checks and things of that nature. We\u2019ll also have organizations pass out health information about healthy living and things like that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_19009\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19009\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-19009\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/1c099b_9e266244d56a4c2ebf2cb779969b607emv2-225x300.webp\" alt=\"From ID Assistance to Voter Forums, Coraopolis NAACP &amp; VoteRiders Are Making Sure PA Voters Are Prepared for Upcoming Elections \" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/1c099b_9e266244d56a4c2ebf2cb779969b607emv2-225x300.webp 225w, https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/1c099b_9e266244d56a4c2ebf2cb779969b607emv2.webp 479w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-19009\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Volunteering at CDC Garden\/NAACP Coraopolis<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>We\u2019re gearing up for one of the most consequential elections of our lifetime.

One of the things I want to do for September 2024 is have a meet and greet candidate forum where we invite local candidates and have moderators interview them \u2014\u00a0like a town hall type of thing. We\u2019ll open it up so the public can ask questions as well. All NAACP branches are non-profit volunteer organizations, so when it comes to politics, we do not endorse any candidates for office \u2014\u00a0so we&#8217;ll invite candidates from both political parties to attend the forum. This would be a way to get voters familiar with the candidates \u2014\u00a0which will possibly boost voter turnout.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What are some of the issues that will drive Pennsylvania voters to the polls in 2024?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obviously electing a new president of the United States is going to drive people to the polls, regardless of your political party. That&#8217;s number one, two, three, four, and five right there. I also think there are some big national issues that will drive people to the polls \u2014 like the economy and inflation. I think we\u2019ll probably see even more people voting this year than we saw in 2020.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>How and when did Coraopolis NAACP first connect with VoteRiders?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_19005\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19005\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-19005 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/1c099b_d5023cc8dead4de08f18d704074a3f7amv2-300x225.webp\" alt=\"From ID Assistance to Voter Forums, Coraopolis NAACP &amp; VoteRiders Are Making Sure PA Voters Are Prepared for Upcoming Elections \" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/1c099b_d5023cc8dead4de08f18d704074a3f7amv2-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.voteriders.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/1c099b_d5023cc8dead4de08f18d704074a3f7amv2.webp 769w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-19005\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Volunteering at CDC Food Distribution Center\/NAACP Coraopolis<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was last summer, I believe.
