The mission of the Mobilization Team at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) is to bring ordinary people into the heart of the DNC and provide Americans with encouragement, power, and tools to mobilize in their communities.

We are a team of passionate, cross-discipline experts committed to empowering grassroots supporters to support the party through creative, relentlessly optimized experiences online and offline. Come join us.
