Before adding any canvassers, first search the Canvassers page by canvasser first and last name to make sure that the new canvassers are not already in Blocks.

After searching, click the 'Add Canvasser' button in the top right of the page. 

Next fill in the appropriate information about the canvasser. 

Make sure you are selecting the correct Turf assignment for your canvassers.

After you are done, click 'Create Canvasser'.

In the event that your organization has a staff person that works out of multiple offices, you may duplicate the canvasser with an identifying code (i.e. ‘John Smith - Philadelphia’). Otherwise, you do not need to create a unique instance of the same canvasser for each shift. Canvassers can be assigned to multiple shifts within their turf assignment and each Staff Member or Volunteer should only have one canvasser.
