Policy Formation

Description and Mission

We believe that grassroots groups can be more effective by working together. Pro-Vote has offices in St. Louis, Kansas City, Springfield, and Mid Missouri to help us serve the entire state. Pro-Vote is a member of USAction, the nation's largest progressive activist organization with affiliates in 23 states. Missouri Progressive Vote Coalition (Pro-Vote) is a statewide coalition of forty labor unions and community groups founded in 1992 to give grassroots organizations the tools to engage their membership in the public policy process.

Activities:

We collect health and veterans’ stories and use them as a reference for policy development and public discussions about health care access. If you are outgoing and enjoy talking to people, we are looking for a student to interview community members for our data bank. Initiative and conversational maturity required.

Extra Projects

Projects consistent with the organization’s mission are available; there are currently no special projects posted.
