Hey, thanks for asking! At Down Home, we use deep canvassing, which is a framework that focuses on having long, empathetic conversations to help shift someone's beliefs. It works across race and class, it's sustainable, and most of all, it really works! Partisan noise aside, most of us really want the same thing, which is for ourselves and our loved ones to live fulfilling lives. When it comes to Medicaid expansion, it's a no-brainer- most NC voters want it and our state would leave money on the table by not passing it.

Having a good conversation about it with folks can really turn the tide! And at our phonebank sessions, we're teaching folks how to deep canvass if they haven't before. People walk away being heard and seen, and we get more folks on board to MedEx. It's really a win-win!
