Hi, all --
--
The Center for Popular Democracy and our sister organization Action For the Common Good seek an Online Organizer to help grow and cultivate our online community.
I'm a little biased, but I think this is a great role at a young organization with a lot of room to grow. If you want to work on creative campaigns to build the organizing power of low-income workers, communities of color, and immigrants... this is the job for you. If you want to be a part of building a digital team essentially from scratch... this is the job for you.
