Standing Committees:
Candidate Outreach: ACDP continues to look for excellent candidates for open positions in Alamance County. Therefore, if you are planning to run for office, thinking about running for office, or know anyone that you feel could be a good candidate, the Candidate Outreach Committee would like to hear from you! We are working hard to have a competitive candidate running for each open position!
Fundraising: To be effective, we must be a positive presence in our community. Maintaining a website, social media, & physical headquarters, as well as providing support to our candidates & volunteers, costs money. We welcome folks with a talent and passion for making our mission possible through fundraising to serve.
Communications: Websites, Newsletters, Social Media, Billboards…We have to get the message out to different folks in different ways. Do you have such skills?
Headquarters Support: We have a core group of dedicated folks who spend time at our HQ so that visitors are greeted by a helpful friend. Join us!
Event Planning: From our annual 3 Governors Banquet and “B” Holt BBQ & Benefit, to evenings at the Sock Puppets or food hall & pizza parties, we strive to have occasions to build community. These events don’t just happen. We need folks who make them what they can be.
Precinct Empowerment Team
Please contact your Precinct Chair or ACDP to volunteer to help build organization within your precinct.
If you have a desire to serve on one of these committees, contact us by email or phone (336-226-5005), or by completing the volunteer interest form.
Be a Better Volunteer with NC Democratic Party Trainings

Here you will find the guides to review after the trainings. We hope these educational sessions will introduce you to new concepts, give you tools that will help you and introduce you to our staff that will be fighting alongside you this cycle. The webinars are held on Zoom, a video calling platform and will be recorded and posted for you to watch at your convenience.
Weekend Training Series Materials here.
Municipal Training Series here.
VoteBuilder for Phonebanking
Join the North Carolina Democratic Party for a deep dive into Votebuilder for Phonebanking.
This class is part of our Organizing Skill Series and participants will learn best practices for connecting with voters, how to pull, save, and share lists, and we’ll then take those lists and learn how to set up online virtual phonebanks. We will also cover how to recruit, train, and engage your volunteers for phonebanking, and we’ll talk about how to manage paper lists and re-enter data if you’re not using a virtual platform.
Votebuilder & MiniVan for Canvassing
Join the North Carolina Democratic Party for a deep dive into MiniVan.
Door-to-door canvassing is one of the most effective tactics for voter contact, and the backbone of our field organizing strategy. Instead of spending millions of hours cutting and printing turf packets and re-entering data, join us as we take a deep dive into the MiniVan app. We’ll learn how to cut and send turf to MiniVan apps, how to actually use the MiniVan app to canvass our neighbors, and effective tips for training your volunteers.
