We've got work to do.

America faces some big challenges. Every day, environmental, social justice and consumer problems become more urgent: Even though an overwhelming majority of Americans support protecting our environment, our national parks continue to be threatened by development and budget cuts. Most Americans want consumer protections, but instead we are giving billions of dollars in subsidies to Big Agriculture to promote fatty and dangerous foods. And the majority of Americans want measures that ensure social justice for everyone; but in most states, it is still legal to fire someone just for being gay. Obviously, many of our decision-makers are listening to the deep-pocketed industry lobbyists and have lost touch with the average American.
America's leading advocacy groups are gearing up to meet these challenges. They know to break the gridlock and make real progress, they'll need a surge of citizen support and grassroots action. That's where we come in.

At the Fund for the Public Interest, we've been organizing campaigns to protect the environment, stand up for the public interest, and defend human rights for more than 25 years. We've helped protect our pristine wilderness areas with Environment America. And working with the Human Rights Campaign, we helped organize the grassroots opposition needed to repeal Don't Ask Don't Tell.

Work with us and gain valuable skills mobilizing and building citizen support, activating the media around critical issues and running petition drives for important campaigns. Work on important issues, build your resume and earn money while you're at it. Hourly wage: $9-$15 average per hour.

Shape the wave of the future. Teach special education.
http://rhodeislandteachingfellows.ttrack.org

According to recent reports, there are nearly 12,000 special education teaching positions that remain unfilled nationwide. Multiply that by all the students affected, and we're looking at more than 100,000 students without the support they need and deserve.

Special education shouldn't mean shortchanged education. Become a special education teacher through the Rhode Island Teaching Fellows and be part of a unique, committed movement of individuals who believe all students can and must achieve at high levels. Fellows who teach special education are not (necessarily) people with prior experience in special education nor with a specific skill set -- but rather they are people who have the unwavering belief that all students can learn.

Special education Fellows have the opportunity to work every day with students who have fallen behind year after year, have gone unnoticed, and need someone to change that story for them. Make a difference in the lives of students who deserve it most.

Rhode Island Teaching Fellows benefit from:

An opportunity to have a direct impact on closing the achievement gap

A fast track pathway to becoming a certified teacher

The potential to earn a full-salary and benefits while working and earning their teaching certification

BOSTON JOBS CAMPAIGN COORDINATOR (Boston, MA )

2012-02-10T15:00:01-05:00
ECONOMIC JUSTICE FUNDING CIRCLE
JOB DESCRIPTION: BOSTON JOBS CAMPAIGN COORDINATOR

Economic Justice Funding Circle (EJFC) seeks an experienced community organizer and campaign manager for the position of Boston Jobs Campaign Coordinator. The BJC Coordinator will play a critical role in advancing a citywide movement that builds accountability from government, private developers and contractors to ensure that construction and permanent jobs linked to development projects are accessible to Boston residents, people of color and women. BJC Coordinator is a half-time position (20 hours a week). The position may be combined with a part-time position to support an organizing initiative with the Boston Workers Alliance.

The Boston Jobs Campaign will be a multi-year organizing campaign based on the following goals:

� Organize for our communities to secure job and contracting opportunities based on the objectives that 51% of total construction work hours be performed by Boston residents, 51% by people of color, and 15% by women.
� Organize to secure and monitor hiring agreements for permanent jobs linked to these projects.
� Strengthen agreements between communities of color and unions.
� Contribute to a citywide narrative focused on the rights of Boston residents, especially workers, immigrants, and people of color to remain in the City, share its wealth, and have a voice in decision-making.
� Establish working partnerships and a unified voice among communities of color.
� Utilize the campaign as an opportunity for community groups to expand their base and leadership core.

QUALIFICATIONS

� Commitment to social change and the empowerment of people of color and no / low income Boston residents
� Strong political analysis and commitment to resisting all forms of oppression, including racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, adultism, economic exploitations etc
� Strong interpersonal, active listening, conflict resolution and facilitation skills
� Expertise in running social change campaigns, including organizing and advocacy, coalition organizing, event/rally planning and leadership development

ROLES AND RESPONSIBILTIES

There are four central areas of responsibility for the BJC Coordinator:

(1) Citywide Monitoring

The BJC Coordinator is responsible for managing a citywide coalition that is focused on enforcing and exceeding the Boston Residency Jobs Policy (BRJP) on targeted constructing sites. The BJC Coordinator will organize and support at least four anchor organizations to identify a major construction site in their neighborhood and organize local workers and residents to monitor the demographic representation on the job sites.

(2) Training and Placement Referrals

The BJC Coordinator will coordinate resources and opportunities for members of community organizations to access relevant build trade trainings. The BJC Coordinator will work to identify and plan for training pipelines for workers of color and women to access pre-apprenticeship trainings and supports and to enter building trades unions. BJC Coordinator will also develop systems to refer and place qualified construction workers onto union and non-union worksites.

(3) Permanent Jobs

The BJC Coordinator will work with the citywide coalition to develop and organize for demands for permanent jobs after development projects are built. As coalition member groups organize around development projects, the Boston Jobs Campaign will begin to popularize and establish a precedent for local proportional hiring goals and agreements around permanent jobs by simultaneously putting forward these demands for new development projects under review in different parts of the city.

(4) Citywide platform and Institutional Reform

The BC Coordinator will lead the development of a citywide policy campaign that explores and advocates for policy reforms that will increase EJFC's broad goals of radically increasing POC representation on job sites. Policy campaigns may include organizing to add enforcement mechanism to the BRJP, or to increase the demographic quotas required for major construction jobs.

The BJC Coordinator is a half-time position that is accountable to the membership of the Economic Justice Funding Circle, which includes Alternatives for Community and Environment, Boston Workers Alliance, City Life Vida Urbana and Chinese Progressive Association.

Work to Re-Elect President Obama!

Work to re-elect Obama and STOP Republican efforts to cut taxes on the wealthy, expand off-shore oil drilling, and repeal health care reform.

WORK WITH TELEFUND TO RE-ELECT OBAMA

Telefund is raising money to build Obama's campaign by rallying his base of donors all across the country.

Senior Research Associate (Waltham)

Education Development Center (EDC) is one of the world's leading nonprofit research and development firms. Established in 1958, EDC designs, delivers and evaluates innovative programs to address some of the world's most urgent challenges in education, health, and economic opportunity. Our services include research, training, educational materials, and strategy, with activities ranging from seed projects to large-scale national and international initiatives.

________________EDC is Committed to Diversity in the Workplace________________

EDC's evaluation of the Nellie Mae Education Foundation District Level Systems Change (NMEF DLSC) initiative and Building Collaborative Cultures (NMEF BCC) initiative in the Research, Evaluation, and Policy Unit has an opening for a Senior Research Associate reporting to the principal investigator in Waltham. MA.

The NMEF DLSC and BCC Evaluation Projects provide a wide range of evaluation services to the Nellie Mae Education Foundation and to the seven sites in the two initiatives. In 2010, the Foundation announced its new long-term focus--student-centered learning (SCL)--and developed an interrelated set of initiatives to encourage and support SCL in the New England region, with a focus on high schools. DLSC and BCC are centerpieces of these efforts; DLSC supports four sites in the development and implementation of systemic plans to foster SCL strategies in their schools and communities, and BCC supports three sites in the design and implementation of professional development strategies that build capacity for SCL. These seven sites were awarded long-term (up to 3 years), full-implementation grants in January 2012.

Beginning in February 2012, EDC is charged with evaluating implementation and impact of these two initiatives. For DLSC the work involves collecting and analyzing data on 21st century learning skills, flexible use of time, reliance on community assets, and development of proficiency-based pathways leading to graduation and post-secondary enrollment. For BCC the work involves data collection and analysis on district- and school-level professional development programs, including data on teachers' instructional practice and student engagement. In addition, the evaluation team will collect long-term outcome data including graduation rates, dropout rates, post-secondary enrollment, and level of student engagement. EDC works closely with NMEF program staff and site leaders to develop evaluation plans that meet the information needs of the foundation and the sites.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR -- Teen Voices (Boston, MA)

2012-02-09T13:11:40-05:00

The Opportunity

Teen Voices' mission is to support and educate teen girls to amplify their voices and create social change through media. It is one of the first writing programs to serve urban girls of color from low-income families. It supports girls as they become confident writers, editors and producers of the award-winning Teen Voices magazine which includes content contributed by girls from around the world. Founded as Women Express in 1988, in recent years Teen Voices has begun to reach girls via online and social networking tools.
Teen Voices seeks an executive director to lead this highly respected girls' organization as it moves forward with its commitment to broaden reach and increase service to girls, both locally and globally. The new leader will work closely with the board to implement a strategic plan that will take the organization to the next stage of development characterized by program replication, expansion of media outlets, and national multi-year funding. The ED will lead a growth strategy that includes development of strategic alliances which enhance and extend Teen Voices' impact.
An extensive strategic planning process has identified four critical goals which, when implemented, will significantly enhance Teen Voices' impact and sustainability. These goals are:

1. Strategic visioning: Developing a competitive organizational offer that includes programs, products and services that advance mission and secure desired results
2. Expand organizational capacity and leadership: The wide range of capabilities, knowledge and resources needed to be vital and effective
3. Increase financial stability: Adequate financial resources for delivering high-quality programs, products and services
4. Improve brand: Recognition of organization, core program and products by key stakeholders

The priorities for the coming years will include evaluating and realigning the program, product and service mix; expanding organizational capacity; and development of new funding sources.

The Ideal Candidate

The successful candidate must be a leader who can connect with local program leaders and participants in meaningful ways while focusing primarily on strategic goals. Specifically, Teen Voices is looking for a candidate with significant executive experience in a dynamic organization that has grown through program expansion and strategic partnerships. The successful candidate will demonstrate the following experience, skills and attributes:
* Systemic and strategic thinker and planner; can see Teen Voices beyond its current program and service delivery methods; is able to conceptualize and align programs, products and services with clearly articulated outcomes
* Demonstrated success in national and local fundraising with special interest in major donors and multi-year funders
* Can seek out and engage strategic partners and capitalize on opportunities to extend the reach and impact of services
* History of involvement with women's and girls' organizations and initiatives
* Working knowledge of journalism
* Able to develop commitment to a shared vision and engage staff, board and stakeholders (national advisory board members and others) in accessing and leveraging resources to achieve the vision
* Seasoned in nonprofit management, leadership, governance, and board development
* Able to develop, oversee and manage a balanced budget
* Excellent communicator; acts as an articulate, effective and visible spokesperson and advocate for the organization through public appearances, community participation and written communications
