Democracy for NYC (DFNYC) is committed to the ideals espoused by Democracy for America, the organization founded by Howard Dean, and the national network of local coalition groups dedicated to the same.
We work both locally and nationally to ensure that fiscally responsible and socially progressive candidates are elected at all levels of government. We develop innovative ways to advocate for the issues that matter to our members and support legislation which has a positive effect in our communities. We promote transparency and ethical practices in government. We engage people in the political process and give them the tools to organize, communicate, mobilize, and enact change on the local, state, and national level.

Greater NYC for Change and Get Covered NY are sponsoring this great event and they need volunteers:
~~~
Greater NYC for Change will be conducting a canvassing and tabling event at the Caribbean Day Parade on Labor Day, September 2, on Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn. Three million people will attend the parade, the biggest in the United States. We have a great opportunity to educate people on the health care exchange opening in NY on October 1, register voters in advance of this fall’s elections, and gather more volunteers for bus trips, phone banks, and other efforts to educate the public about the key issues facing our country.
Three Shifts: Noon-2pm, 2pm-4pm, and 4pm-6pm. (Everyone is welcome to stay for more than one, as many people have in previous years) The parade is a great opportunity to dance to Calypso & Soca, and to feast on lots of tasty West Indian food. Lots of amazing costumes, too! Volunteers can sign up at this link.
