Mid Minnesota Legal Aid and the Minnesota Disability Law Center invite you to take part in our annual "Accessibility at the Polls" event this upcoming Election Day. This year, on Tuesday, November 5, we are looking for volunteers to join us in examining accessibility at Minnesota Polling Places. Volunteers must know how to use a tape measure, be comfortable speaking with polling officials and act professionally during the event.

To volunteer, you must have either attended a previous training session, or take part in one of our two upcoming training sessions on the afternoon of Wednesday, October 16th, or at 11:00 am on Thursday, October 31st. The session on October 16th will be at the Legal Aid offices – 430 First Ave N., Ste. 300, Minneapolis, MN 55401. The session on October 31st will be at the NEW Legal Aid offices – 111 North 5th Street, Suite 100, Minneapolis, MN 55403.
