LEARN Program

At this time, we are pausing hiring for the LEARN Canvasser position. However, interested applicants are still welcome to submit an application, as there may be future canvasser positions available this summer and fall.

At Denver Families for Public Schools, we believe every Denverite deserves to have their voices heard in decisions about our city’s public schools. However, the fact that only 1 in 4 eligible voters participates in Denver’s school board elections means that the community is not at the table when it comes to DPS leadership and policy-making. 

The LEARN Program is a door-to-door paid canvassing effort to (1) elevate the conversation about the future of public education in Denver and (2) encourage the community to vote in this November’s election. 

This summer, our LEARN team will knock on thousands of doors and talk to thousands of people across the city. Our goal is not only to learn about what the community cares about most when it comes to public education but to spark greater participation in this year’s election. 

Canvassers will be paid $30 / hour and can commit to the number of hours – up to 25 hours per week – that best fits their schedule. Parents, caregivers, teachers, DPS school staff, and DPS graduates are all strongly encouraged to apply.
