Voter Registration

Voter Registration Opportunities

The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA), a federal law, and the Florida Voter Registration Act require that university and community college offices serving persons with disabilities offer those persons the opportunity to register to vote or to update a voter registration record at the time the applicant applies for services or assistance, applies for renewal of such services or assistance, and/or applies for a change of address. The Center will provide persons with disabilities a preference form and if persons indicate they want to apply to vote the Center will provide a voter registration application form. Applying or declining to register to vote does not in any way affect the amount of assistance persons will receive from the Center. For persons with disabilities who choose not contact the Center in-person the following links provide alternative opportunities to register to vote.
