Candler Election Day Chaplaincy

Thank you for your interest in supporting voters this fall. This is a ministry!

Candler does not hold classes on Election Day, and the purpose for this is to support students, faculty, and staff in accessing their right to vote. If you vote early, vote by mail, are not eligible to vote, or think you'll have plenty of time on Election Day to vote AND help others vote, here is where you can get more involved. Also, if you have more time and want to help during Early Voting, you can do this as well!

Please note that all Candler students, regardless of where you live or whether you are eligible to vote yourself, can participate in some way. This includes both Hybrid and Residential plan MDIV students, and students in all our degree programs.

Please also note that the work we will connect you to is non-partisan, focused on supporting voters and the democratic process. If you would like to volunteer with a political party or a particular candidate on your own time, please contact these organizations directly.

Complete the information below, and we'll be in touch soon with options for action. Questions? Contact Dr. Corrie at ecorrie@emory.edu
