Volunteer with ICIRR
Are you interested in volunteering to register first-time voters? Are you interested in helping our newest American citizens fulfill their first privilege of citizenship immediately after their official Oath Ceremony? Here’s your opportunity to do both! 

The Illinois Coalition for Immigrants and Refugee Rights (ICIRR) needs volunteers to offer one hour of time to help register these newest U.S. citizens at downtown Chicago locations. Shifts are available any of five days a week, either 10:00 am or 1:00 pm. No formal registrar training needed, just an interview with ICIRR’s Volunteer Coordinator downtown. For more information, please contact Robbie at Robbie.schreiber08@gmail.com

** We would love to be able to make this amazing program an NCJW Community Service Project. If you would be inte rested in volunteering or learning more about what that would entail - contact Robbie at robbie.schreiber08@gmail.com
