“A Voteless People is a Hopeless People” (aka VPHP) was initiated as a National Program of Alpha during the 1930’s when many African-Americans had the right to vote but were prevented from voting because of poll taxes, threats of reprisal, and lack of education about the voting process. Voter education and registration have remained a dominant focus of this outreach activity for over 65 years. In the 1990’s, the focus has shifted to include political awareness and empowerment, delivered most frequently through town meetings and candidate forums.

You can’t do anything unless you are sure that YOU are registered to vote: Go to vote.usa.gov and register to vote. Sometimes brothers move from place to place and don’t get registered right away. We understand, but now is the time. Please refer to the following resources to learn more about the Election Calendar and Federal Election Committee.
