Civic engagement — not hour-eligibleCurrently accepting volunteers

League of Women Voters of New Jersey

Trenton, Mercer County · Ages 14+

A nonpartisan organization focused on voter registration, voter education, and expanding participation in elections. They run an Activist Training Program and youth-focused work under the banner of energizing young voters, plus a statewide voter hotline. Worth understanding the hour-eligibility here: because the League is explicitly nonpartisan and does voter services rather than campaigning for candidates, a number of NJ districts do count this kind of work toward service hours — unlike partisan campaign work. We tag it conservatively as civic engagement, but it is genuinely worth asking your counselor before you rule it out. Local Leagues operate in many counties, so ask about the chapter nearest you.

This is a civic engagement opportunity. Most NJ school districts do not count political or advocacy volunteering toward community service hour requirements. How hour verification works
