Jarvis was campaign chairman for presidential candidate Gary Bauer in 2000. He resigned the position, and as stated in Christianity Today: "Charles Jarvis, Bauer's former campaign chairman, and Tim McDonald, former chief of advance operations, said they resigned from Bauer's campaign because they felt that Bauer was fostering the appearance of sexual impropriety by meeting and traveling alone with the deputy manager." He later endorsed Steve Forbes for presidential candidate.

Jarvis was also the executive vice president of Focus on the Family. Additionally, he is a member of the Council for National Policy, another political Christian organization. He also sits on the national advisory board of For Our Grandchildren a group promoting U.S. Social Security privatization.
