Advisory Board

Kadida Kenner (she/her) is the founding executive director of the New Pennsylvania Project, a voting rights organization with a primary focus on voter engagement and registration. NPP’s primary focus is to civically engage, register, mobilize and empower often-ignored constituents, especially the youth, immigrant communities, and communities of color in rural, urban, and suburban Pennsylvania to transform and expand the electorate in the Commonwealth. Kadida is a tireless advocate for social and economic justice issues and is motivated to empower and excite the electorate to enthusiastically vote in every election -- all the way down the entire ballot. In addition to working on voting rights, Kadida also serves as co-chair of Why Courts Matter - Pennsylvania, an advocacy campaign seeking to protect the independence of our state and federal courts, and educate the electorate about their importance. Prior to working in issue advocacy, Kadida was a director, producer and writer for HBCU sports television programming - both live and scripted in Charlotte, North Carolina and Atlanta, Georgia. The Temple University graduate resides in the Philly suburbs and counts civil rights organizing icon, and West Chester, Pennsylvania native Bayard Rustin as her hero.
