Preference will be given to local candidates, but strong remote applicants and potential relocations will be considered.

Who We Are:
The Outreach Team is the national engine of campaigners and organizers powering the movement to fight back. With an on-the-ground presence in communities all across the country, our world-class team runs high-impact civic engagement campaigns to build a future that’s fairer, healthier, safer, and more peaceful for everyone. We are proud to be partnering once again with Planned Parenthood to protect and expand reproductive freedom in key states.

General Overview:
We are seeking Campus and Community Organizers to build grassroots support for reproductive rights and engage communities around access to care and legislative threats. In this role, you'll develop and grow relationships on college campuses and in nearby communities, recruit and train volunteers, and drive turnout to Planned Parenthood-organized town halls and events. You will also play a key support role for existing Planned Parenthood organizing staff in each state.

This position is ideal for someone passionate about reproductive justice who thrives in fast-paced, people-centered campaign environments.

Key Responsibilities:

Recruit and Train Volunteer Leaders

  • Engage supporters via calls and texts and recruit them into organizing activities
  • Gather petitions and take campaign actions to identify new volunteers
  • Train volunteers through grassroots organizing skill sessions
  • Maintain detailed volunteer tracking to ensure strong follow-up and retention

Community Engagement and Events

  • Plan and execute campaign activities that build awareness and engagement
  • Mobilize students and community members to participate in events and actions
  • Drive turnout to Planned Parenthood-led town halls and support on-the-ground organizing efforts
  • Represent the campaign in community spaces and uplift partner organizations

Digital Outreach and Data Management

  • Activate social media supporters to amplify campaign messages
  • Use peer-to-peer texting tools and relational organizing platforms
  • Send timely email campaigns to recruit participants and promote events
  • Track all outreach efforts and report progress through daily numbers and weekly reports

Qualifications:

Must-Haves

  • Deep commitment to reproductive rights, equity, and justice
  • Strong organizational and multitasking skills in fast-paced environments
  • Clear and effective communication, both written and spoken
  • Comfort using campaign tools like VAN, Hustle, Impactiv, and Mailchimp
  • Availability to work evenings and weekends as needed

Nice-to-Haves

  • Prior experience on issue or electoral campaigns
  • Background in event planning or community organizing
  • Experience working with volunteers, especially in student or grassroots contexts
  • Familiarity with Google Suite and data tracking tools

Salary, Benefits, and Perks: The salary range for this position is $55,000 to $65,000, commensurate with experience. Compensation is determined through an equity-based pay calculator, and we do not negotiate salaries to ensure fairness across our team. Benefits include:

  • Unlimited paid vacation (with approval) and sick leave
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Monthly cell phone stipend

Equity and Inclusion is Our North Star:
We believe that a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace makes us stronger and better at what we do. We strongly encourage people of color, women, LGBTQIA+ folks, people with disabilities, and individuals from underrepresented communities to apply. Our leadership team reflects our values and the communities we serve.
