We’re excited to have you join us in this monumental effort to establish the foundations of our state party!
Becoming a successful political party will require a wide variety of skills and talents. We are all volunteers. Whether you have an hour to spare once a month or an hour a day, putting all of those together is what will move us Forward!
There are a number of meaningful ways you can get involved:

- Join one of the working groups helping to build a strong and durable organization. More details on the working groups is below.
- Take on a leadership role. There are many new and exciting things that we want to do that require strong organizational and leadership skills to put it together. For example, we want to have a County Lead for every county in North Carolina.
