FIELD DIRECTOR FOR COUNTY INITIATIVE
Access for All: Investing in Arts, Science and Heritage Education and Equity
LOCATION: Seattle, WA
CONTACT: Resumes should be submitted to jack@accessforallwa.org
Our coalition of nearly 400 arts institutions, science centers, museum and heritage organizations believes that access to diverse scientific and artistic experiences shouldn't be reserved for just those who can afford it.
Access for All is a proposed King County ballot measure for the August 1, 2017 primary ballot. The Access for All program will open doors to arts, science and heritage experiences for all King County residents, increasing access to learning and culture for students, low-income families, communities of color, seniors and people with disabilities. It includes a dramatic increase in funding to bring arts, science, and heritage education into our county's public schools, as well as provide students with free access to curriculum-related arts, science, and heritage programs — with an emphasis on underserved communities.
By boosting funding for nearly 400 regional and community-based organizations throughout the county, Access for All will create a thriving community where our county's educational and cultural institutions will be able to provide more services to underserved communities.
ABOUT THE POSITION
The Field Director would be primarily responsible for executing a countywide volunteer voter contact strategy in support of the August ballot measure, as well as coordination volunteers and other assets among our supporting institutions.
The Field Director will be responsible for growing the campaign's network of supporters by attending community meetings, organizing events and coordinating with campaign partners. The FD will be expected to work closely with the Campaign Manager to engage partners and endorsing organizations in volunteer opportunities.
The campaign will also hire field organizers to support the campaign's field work. The Field Director will also design and implement a GOTV plan.
