The Legal Aid Services of Oregon (LASO) Statewide Tax Clinic is seeking a full-time coordinator of tax-related outreach and education around the state. This position is funded for two years with the option to renew. This position will be eligible for partial remote work. The Tax Clinic, while housed in the Portland Regional Office, is a statewide program. Applications from people living around the state are welcome. Primary work location can be determined at the time of hiring.
Background
LASO is a non-profit organization that represents low-income clients in civil cases. LASO’s eight regional offices serve the general low-income population throughout the state and two specialized statewide programs focused on services to farmworkers and on issues affecting Native Americans. LASO is an effective, high-quality legal services program that is committed to advocacy strategies having the broadest possible impact on client community problems.
The Portland Regional Office of LASO serves a poverty population of more than 220,000. The office serves Multnomah, Clackamas, Hood River, Sherman and Wasco counties, a diverse service area requiring the ability to work effectively with individuals from diverse cultures and backgrounds. The Portland Office has adopted a race equity agenda to guide its work with clients as well as its internal operations. The office has a strong commitment to building an inclusive, diverse workplace.
Statewide Tax Clinic
LASO receives a grant from the IRS to assist low-income taxpayers with federal tax problems and associated state tax problems. This takes the form of outreach and education, direct representation, and systemic advocacy. The work of the Statewide Tax Clinic is important to the elimination and alleviation of childhood poverty in the United States. We work to ensure the fairness and integrity of the tax system for low-income, BIPOC, and/or immigrant taxpayers through a mix of direct service work, affirmative litigation, and systemic advocacy work.
Oregon consistently has one of the nation’s lowest Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) participation rates. The EITC is a tax credit designed for families surviving on low wages. In 2018, more than one in four eligible Oregon households did not claim the credit, collectively missing out on $84 million in federal dollars. The EITC is one of the most effective tools for helping working families meet their basic needs and improve their lives. Oregonians less likely to claim the credit are those for whom English is not their primary language and those who live in rural areas, are self-employed, and/or have disabilities. Because of this, the Oregon Department of Human Services has allocated funds to the Tax Clinic to help overcome this disparity, in part, through tax education and assistance to navigate tax systems.
Qualifications
Proven interest in and commitment to advocacy for the legal rights of low-income and other vulnerable populations. Demonstrated enthusiasm, creativity, good judgment, initiative, and willingness to work as a team. Understanding and commitment to anti-bias principles, cultural competency and addressing systemic racism and other forms of oppression. Because the primary function of this role is to provide community outreach with a focus on rural populations and populations for whom English is not their primary language, preference will be given to candidates who are bilingual in Spanish or another language commonly spoken by tax clinic clients. Though not required, the ideal candidate will be credentialed as a CPA, Enrolled Agent, be a member of the Oregon State Bar, or be eligible to obtain such credentials within the first year of employment.
Essential Functions
Community Outreach:
Identify and develop relationships with key community partners.
Develop and implement an outreach work plan with goals, steps, and timelines.
Provide educational presentations to community members and partner organizations.
Determine what educational materials are needed.
Coordinate the development of educational materials.
Working Conditions and Physical Requirements
Work in an office environment including working at a workstation, attending meetings, etc.
This position will involve frequent travel around the state of Oregon and, as such, requires a valid driver’s license or the ability to obtain one within 60 days of hire date.
Use of computer and other office equipment during a 7-hour workday.
Salary/Benefits
Compensation is based on the currently negotiated union salary scale for a 35-hour work week. Placement on the salary scale is based on relevant experience. The salary range is $41K-65K. Additional compensation of $3600 for bilingual ability. Full benefits package including individual and family health, vision and dental insurance coverage; 6% employer retirement contribution; generous paid holidays, vacation and sick leave; and paid moving expenses.
Closing Date
Reviews of resumes to begin on April 17, 2023.
Applications

LASO receives a grant from the IRS to assist low-income taxpayers with federal tax problems and associated state tax problems. This takes the form of outreach and education, direct representation, and systemic advocacy. The work of the Statewide Tax Clinic is important to the elimination and alleviation of childhood poverty in the United States. We work to ensure the fairness and integrity of the tax system for low-income, BIPOC, and/or immigrant taxpayers through a mix of direct service work, affirmative litigation, and systemic advocacy work.
Oregon consistently has one of the nation’s lowest Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) participation rates. The EITC is a tax credit designed for families surviving on low wages. In 2018, more than one in four eligible Oregon households did not claim the credit, collectively missing out on $84 million in federal dollars. The EITC is one of the most effective tools for helping working families meet their basic needs and improve their lives. Oregonians less likely to claim the credit are those for whom English is not their primary language and those who live in rural areas, are self-employed, and/or have disabilities. Because of this, the Oregon Department of Human Services has allocated funds to the Tax Clinic to help overcome this disparity, in part, through tax education and assistance to navigate tax systems.
Qualifications
Proven interest in and commitment to advocacy for the legal rights of low-income and other vulnerable populations. Demonstrated enthusiasm, creativity, good judgment, initiative, and willingness to work as a team. Understanding and commitment to anti-bias principles, cultural competency and addressing systemic racism and other forms of oppression. Because the focus of the tax clinic is to serve populations for whom English is not their primary language, preference will be given to candidates who are bilingual in Spanish, or another language commonly spoken by tax clinic clients. Though not required, the ideal candidate will be credentialed as a CPA, Enrolled Agent, or be eligible to obtain such credentials within the first year of employment.
Essential Functions
Creating systems and developing processes to create a smooth and consistent workflow in the office;
Assisting with compiling grant reports;
Answering phones and screening clients for eligibility;
Case handling duties including factual investigation, preparing documents, contact with the IRS on behalf of taxpayers, etc.
Other appropriate functions when necessary.
Working Conditions and Physical Requirements
Work in an office environment including working at a workstation, attending meetings, etc.
Use of computer and other office equipment during a 7-hour workday.
Salary/Benefits
Compensation is based on the currently negotiated union salary scale for a 35-hour work week. Placement on the salary scale is based on relevant experience. The salary range is $41K-65K. Additional compensation of $3600 for bilingual ability. Full benefits package including individual and family health, vision and dental insurance coverage; 6% employer retirement contribution; generous paid holidays, vacation and sick leave; and paid moving expenses.

OVERVIEW
VoteRiders is a nonpartisan 501(c)(3) nonprofit, focused on voter ID education and assistance. Our work raises awareness of voter ID laws and VoteRiders’ services. Our programs identify, educate and help voters in need of voter ID assistance so they can vote with confidence, knowing they cannot be turned away .
Targeted voter ID education and assistance in Texas has never been more crucial, as a new voting law enacted in December 2021 has created further confusion about the state’s requirements for ID when voting in-person and by mail. Because of this new law, as well as widespread confusion and intimidation surrounding voter ID issues more broadly, thousands of Texans were unable to, or deterred from, casting a ballot during the state’s March 1, 2022, primary election. Ahead of the midterm elections in November and beyond, VoteRiders is seeking to expand its presence in Texas to mitigate the impact of the new (and ongoing, stringent) voter ID provisions in the state’s voting laws and help Texans cast a ballot that counts and in large numbers.
The Latino community in Texas is particularly impacted by voter ID laws, and in need of targeted support to ensure that all eligible voters are able to cast a ballot that counts in a context of widespread confusion regarding the state’s new voting law. For this reason, VoteRiders is seeking a Spanish-speaking Bilingual Organizer to be based in Houston, Texas to support and scale our work in the greater Houston region, with a particular focus on implementing and expanding our Voter ID Clinics program. Voter ID Clinics involve placing trained VoteRiders staff or volunteers on-site (or virtually) at partnering community organizations such as shelters, community centers, food banks, and more. Ideally held on a regular basis, VoteRiders’ Voter ID Clinics offer one-on-one and fully-paid voter ID assistance to any voter who needs it — including all transportation arrangements and costs and helping to obtain and paying the fees for the ID and underlying documents.
This is a full-time position, available ASAP. The VoteRiders Houston Organizer will work in close coordination with our Texas Voter ID Coalition Coordinator (based in San Antonio), a second Houston Organizer, and will directly report to our National Voter ID Assistance Director.

OVERVIEW
VoteRiders is a nonpartisan 501(c)(3) nonprofit, focused on voter ID education and assistance. Our work raises awareness of voter ID laws and VoteRiders’ services. Our programs identify, educate and help voters in need of voter ID assistance so they can vote with confidence, knowing they cannot be turned away.
Targeted voter ID education and assistance in Texas has never been more crucial, as a new voting law enacted in December 2021 has created further confusion about the state’s requirements for ID when voting in-person and by mail. Because of this new law, as well as widespread confusion and intimidation surrounding voter ID issues more broadly, thousands of Texans were unable to, or deterred from, casting a ballot during the state’s March 1, 2022, primary election. Ahead of the midterm elections in November, VoteRiders is seeking to expand its presence in Texas to mitigate the impact of the new (and ongoing, stringent) voter ID provisions in the state’s voting laws and help Texans cast a ballot that counts and in large numbers.
VoteRiders is seeking a Houston, Texas-based Organizer to support and scale our work in the greater Houston region, with a particular focus on implementing and expanding our Voter ID Clinics program. Voter ID Clinics involve placing trained VoteRiders staff or volunteers on-site (or virtually) at partnering community organizations such as shelters, community centers, food banks, and more. Ideally held on a regular basis, VoteRiders’ Voter ID Clinics offer one-on-one and fully-paid voter ID assistance to any voter who needs it -- including all transportation arrangements and costs and helping to obtain and paying the fees for the ID and underlying documents.
This is a full-time position, available ASAP. The VoteRiders Houston Organizer will work in close coordination with our Texas Voter ID Coalition Coordinator (based in San Antonio) and report to our National Voter ID Assistance Director.

Train partner organization staff and volunteers on Texas’s voter ID law and on the implementation of Voter ID Clinics, ensuring productive and ongoing partnerships that enable VoteRiders’ partners to deliver ID education and assistance to the communities they serve
Recruit, train, and oversee a diverse group of VoteRiders volunteers who can support Voter ID Clinics in-person and virtually, as well as provide virtual ID assistance outside of regular Voter ID Clinic events
Promote VoteRiders’ tools and services widely with partner organizations in Texas, including our bilingual Voter ID Chatbot, Voter ID Helpline, and Texas Voter ID Information wallet cards
30% Voter Engagement

10% Reporting
Ensure timely and comprehensive reporting on established program metrics of success, including: number of partnerships established, number of volunteers recruited, number of partner staff and volunteers trained, number of volunteers trained, number of Voter ID Clinics organized, number of voters assisted along with the voter ID status of those assisted, number of voters otherwise educated about voter ID, and others
Track and reconcile expenses associated with the organization of Voter ID Clinics and voter ID assistance
