General Description:
LCV believes our earth is worth fighting for because everyone has a right to clean air, water, and a safe, healthy community. To ensure those rights are protected, we help people use their power to shape policy, hold politicians and polluters accountable, and influence elections.
For more than 50 years, LCV has grown into a potent political force for protecting our planet and everyone who inhabits it. We have built a powerful national movement with 30 state affiliates, and grassroots and community organizing programs across the country.
One of the largest and fastest growing areas of work for LCV and its sister organization LCV Education Fund is using civic engagement and grassroots community organizing to fight for climate justice, pollution-free communities and an inclusive, accessible and participatory democracy. Through programs like Chispa, a grassroots organizing program operating in six states (Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Nevada, and Texas), we are building a powerful new environmental leadership base within communities of color through the Clean Buses for Healthy Niños campaign, as well as our civic engagement program that has helped over 1.5 million individuals register to vote since our first program in 2012 and won ballot measures that made voting easier and more accessible for our growing electorate in communities across the country.
The Community and Civic Engagement (CCE) Associate will assist with the tracking of the department budgets and provide administrative support, including preparation of materials, presentations and reports. This role will directly support the Senior Vice President for Community and Civic Engagement and provide general support to the CCE department.
