RUN FOR OFFICE in 2026!
We imagine an Arizona where low-income and people of color leaders have the political power to co-govern with their communities, whether you run for school board, city council, state legislature, or any other local office. From prioritizing education for students to advocating for resources for families, having a seat at the table is one way we can build political power. Are you ready to run for office in our state?
