Why volunteer with 603 Forward?
603 Forward is building people power in New Hampshire by helping community members take action on the issues that matter most. Volunteering can look like talking to neighbors, showing up at events, sharing your story, learning how government works, or helping grow local action in your community.
You do not need to be an expert to get involved. We want to know what you care about, what skills you want to build, and what support would make it easier for you to take action.

There are lots of ways to plug in, from behind-the-scenes support to public advocacy.
