Indivisible VAN Application Form

We're excited you're interested in using VAN!

VAN is the premier voter engagement tool for progressive groups and organizations like Indivisible groups! It connects you with voters on the phones and at the doors, tracks and enters data for you in real time, and helps you build relationships with voters in your own neighborhood and across your state. Indivisible groups across the country have been using VAN through Indivisible since 2018, and now you can join them!

Please fill out the following application. If you have any questions while filling out the application, please reach out to your Organizer. Upon submitting your application, it will be reviewed by the Data Team, with follow up and next steps sent to you via email as soon as possible after review.

While we make every effort to approve and complete your request as soon as possible, we strongly recommend submitting your request as far in advance as possible to ensure a prompt start time for your event.

Thank you!
