Reach is the grassroots organizing app that lets you truly meet people where they are, build relationships, manage your team, and get results. Originally built by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's groundbreaking campaign, this canvassing and relational organizing app is changing the way progressives connect with voters and supporters. Reach's direct search features let your team find voters and collect data from them in person or online, turning every voter interaction into a canvassing attempt. The relational organizing features allow each user to build and activate their own personal network of voters including both people they've known for years and new people they meet during their work. The home screen, live chat, push notifications, and gamification make Reach the perfect digital organizing hub for your volunteers and activists. Plus, best-in-class accessibility features like expandable multilingual support, full offline access, and the ability to override core voter file data like dead-names make Reach is an inclusive tool that is welcoming to everyone in the movement. Anyone can download Reach and create an account, but the action begins when your campaign joins the app. Check with your campaign to see if they’re using Reach yet so they can get you plugged in. You can join as many campaigns as you like with the same Reach account. If you are a representative of a righteous progressive campaign or organization and you're interested in using Reach to revolutionize your field efforts, please visit us at www.reach.vote to get started.
