About Pennsylvania Voice: Established in 2010, Pennsylvania Voice is the 501(c)3 table for more than 55 state and local-based organizations, working year-round to create a more accessible, inclusive, and representative democracy by amplifying the voices, leadership, and expertise of communities that have historically experienced deliberate barriers to civic participation. Our partnership is grounded in the belief that a fair and just society will be achieved through collective power; that democracy requires full participation and equitable representation; and that the pathway to power in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania must include Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and AAPI communities.
Together, we win shared policy and civic engagement victories to build long-term power.

Civic Engagement: Year-round integrated voter engagement campaigns that increase voting, voter registration, and participation in civic life among all Pennsylvanians and specifically Black, Indigenous, and communities of color.
Voting Rights and Access: Modernizing elections to make voting more convenient and fully accessible to all.
Reflective Democracy: Investment in community leadership and governance that is accountable to community interests and needs.
An explicit commitment to racial equity frames our partnership, our programs, and our culture.
