Who We Are

MOVE (Mobilize, Organize, Vote, Empower) Texas innovates democracy for our generation. We work daily to build a more just and representative future that empowers inspiring new leaders to keep making Texas better. Our vision is to build the political power of young people to transform democracy in Texas and beyond. While we are known as MOVE Texas, we are comprised of two organizations.

• MOVE Texas Action Fund (501(c)(4) is the political arm of MOVE Texas, an organization dedicated to building the political power of young people in underrepresented communities through civic engagement, leadership development, and issue advocacy.

• MOVE Texas Civic Fund (501(c)(3) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit, grassroots organization building power in underrepresented youth communities through civic education, leadership development, and issue advocacy.

MOVE Texas operates throughout Texas and primarily in San Antonio, Laredo, Seguin, San Marcos, Austin, Houston, College Station, Fort Worth, Denton, and Dallas. We plan to continue growing and serving other cities and counties beyond these areas.

Our Values & Commitments

We are an organization that leads from our values of People First, Equity, Imagination & Action, Sustainability, & Community Focus. We are dedicated to hiring a diverse workforce that fosters personal and professional development opportunities. We provide a collaborative and supportive environment built upon our fundamental core principles, where each employee is valued.

HOW TO GET INVOLVED

MOVE Membership

This is where change begins—with you. MOVE Texas members aren’t bystanders. We’re organizers, disruptors, and dreamers who believe in the power of young people to lead now. Becoming a member means taking a stand for a Texas where every vote counts, every voice matters, and every person has a role in shaping our collective future. By joining as a member, you’re making a commitment—to show up, to take action, and to build power alongside your community. Whether it’s registering voters, organizing events, or turning out for elections, your leadership makes the difference. Sign up for a MOVE Texas New Members Orientation at the following link.

• Statewide MOVE Texas Membership: Members join the statewide network, gaining access to exclusive statewide virtual training, distributed leadership opportunities, and statewide campaigns. (Ex: Attending Anti Lege-Lege Club training, testifying at the capitol, or hosting a distributed National Voter Registration Day event.)
  

• Local Membership (Chapters & Community Hubs): Members plug into local organizing through a MOVE Texas chapter, taking action in their own communities while staying connected to the statewide movement.

Campus Organizer

Campus Organizers are boots-on-the-ground student leaders participating in the Campus Chapter Program, MOVE Texas’ flagship leadership development program that invests in institutionally recognized student organizations that increase campus civic participation through voter engagement, community learning, and issue advocacy. By centering voter engagement and issue advocacy in the student experience, Campus Organizers create spaces for young people to become more civically engaged, build meaningful relationships, escalate peers into leadership, and mobilize their campus community on the issues they care about. Campus Organizers work collaboratively across the organization to build foundational civic leadership skills such as grassroots organizing strategies and tactics, political education, and leadership development through statewide and local training, experiential learning, and a guided capstone.
