THE NEW PENNSYLVANIA PROJECT was founded in May 2021 to expand Pennsylvania’s electorate, so it reflects the Commonwealth’s demographically changing population. NPP continues to engage and empower young residents and those living in underrepresented immigrant communities and communities of color. We register communities to vote, provide civic education about the issues that matter in their neighborhoods, and mobilize Pennsylvanians to vote in every election.

LEAD PA Institute is a 501c3 non-profit charitable organization committed to building power within historically marginalized communities.  LEAD PA Institute creates customized civic education curricula that informs the public on Pennsylvania’s unique community structures and multiple governing systems.  LEAD PA Institute also provides professional development education that promotes anti-oppression, race and gender equity in organizational hiring, employment, and promotion practices.

Applications will be accepted through 4:00 PM on July 1, 2023.  Have questions that were not covered in these instructions?  Send an email to training@leadpa.org with “Behind the Scenes 2023” in the subject line.
