What is the Political Affairs Committee?

The Vancouver NAACP Political Affairs Committee is a group of volunteers who work to make sure Black voters are engaged and encouraged to vote in every election and who work to ensure that all communities – especially those systematically left behind – are included in all levels of policy and politics in Clark County. We are a local volunteer chapter, focusing on local political issues and actions, with ties to the State and National NAACP. We are proud to partner with local and national civic organizations to address pertinent issues.

The fundamental right of every eligible voter to cast their ballot and every resident to have their voice heard as a member of society are cornerstones of our democracy. How we deploy resources, make real the social norms and standards across every community, shape our daily lives through policy, and move forward the shared values of this country are all based on these foundational principles.

This Committee is non-partisan 501(c)(4) organization, we do not endorse individual candidates or political parties.

Get Involved!

The Committee meets regularly each month. To attend a meeting or learn more, please email [email protected].

The Committee welcomes all volunteers who have an interest or experience in our local politics to effect change! There are a number of events, activities and behind-the-scenes opportunities where your unique support is needed and valued. Help us empower Black people by getting out the vote, educating the community, & holding educational candidate forums for important local races!

“Where you see wrong or inequality or injustice, speak out, because this is your country. This is your democracy. Make it. Protect it. Pass it on.” ~ Thurgood Marshall, 1978 University of Virginia commencement speech
