Represent and engage your campus community. Shape the conversation and help build the city you deserve.
Too often in politics, students are told to wait their turn. Wait until you've graduated. Wait until you own a home. Wait until you have more experience. Not this campaign. We have an open door and we're inviting you in.
You're already navigating a housing market that's pricing you out. You're riding the CTA every day. You're studying, working, and building communities across this city. You don't need more experience — you need a seat at the table.
Joe Holberg is running for Mayor because Chicago deserves leadership that listens to everyone — especially the generation that will live with the consequences of today's decisions the longest. We're not asking you to stuff envelopes. We're asking you to help lead.
Advise the campaign directly on issues that matter to students — housing, transit, jobs, education, and more. Your perspective isn't a nice-to-have. It's essential.
Lead voter registration drives, host events, and build a chapter at your school. Whether you're at UChicago, DePaul, UIC, Loyola, Northwestern, IIT, City Colleges, or anywhere else — your network and your voice is your power.
This isn't busy work. Build your resume and real-world experience at the same time. You'll gain hands-on experience in organizing, communications, data, policy research, and campaign operations — skills that launch careers.
Housing affordability, student debt, job opportunities, climate action, public transit — these aren't abstract policy topics. They're your daily life. Help build the Chicago you want to live in.
We're looking for passionate students at universities and colleges across Chicago who want to make a difference on their campus and in their city.
Chicago needs your energy, your ideas, and your refusal to accept the status quo. Apply now and start making your mark.
