Grassroots Campaigns, Inc. is looking for highly ambitious candidates for our Regional Field Director positions. Both Congress and the White House have been seized by far right extremism that will continue to undo every ounce of progress we have made if they are not stopped in 2018.

A typical office will employ, on average, between 15 and 50 canvassers over the course of a year, and will have annual goals for conversations with citizens, signatures gathered, voters registered, coalition size, and / or money raised, depending on the nature of the campaign.
