Role OverviewThe Neighborhoods Manager will lead the Neighborhoods Team in building trusted relationships with community-based partners and delivering in-language voter education to communities with historically low voter turnout. The team focuses on engaging voters who speak a language other than English (LOTE) in priority neighborhoods.
What You Will Do
The Manager will oversee the unique strategies for engagement in each of our priority geographies, support Coordinators in attaining the resources required to meet the specific needs of each community, and cultivate and manage high-profile relationships with coalitions, civic leaders, and institutions serving diverse immigrant populations.
Why It Might Be a Fit
We seek to work with someone passionate about making voting, contributing to candidate campaigns, and running for office inclusive for those most marginalized in our society. Ideally, this candidate is aware or interested in deepening their understanding of how racism, ableism, classism or other oppressions show up in government systems.
