To ensure those rights are protected, we help people use their power to shape policy, hold politicians and polluters accountable, and influence elections. Our over 2 million members, our volunteers and staff, and our more than 30 state affiliates (together, the Conservation Voter Movement) work for a more just and equitable democracy, where people—not polluters—determine our future. This movement is an influential national network with unparalleled influence in Washington, DC, in state capitals, and in communities around the country. The SVP of Community & Civic Engagement (CCE) oversees grassroots community organizing, civic engagement and democracy strategies and ensures that we create a multiplier-effect with other LCV and LCV Education Fund strategies. Civic Engagement: Over the last twenty years, LCV Education Fund has developed one of the most effective nonpartisan voter participation programs in the nation. We pioneered tools such as membership list enhancement, and we continue to lead in areas such as mobilization, profiling and modeling, issue ID, control group testing and high-end analytics. We are externally recognized for our leadership in the space, such as the most recent Independent Voter Registration Report where LCVEF was ranked the most efficient program in the nation—with an 83 percent rate of successful registrations—for the third consecutive election cycle. Through our national vote-by-mail, voter registration and GOTV efforts, we have become the leading pro-climate group working to encourage under-represented communities to participate in elections. LCV increasingly plays a major role in pro-democracy ballot measures that reduce barriers to voting at the state and local level. Even outside the pro-climate community, we are one of the largest players in the civic engagement space, with a focus on increasing involvement of communities of color and young people in the democratic process. LCV launched a Candidate Recruitment and Training Program, with the ambitious goal of transforming who is a part of our government and making our boards, commissions and elected offices more reflective of the racial and ethnic diversity of our country. We are working to ensure that the people who have been systemically locked out of these roles have the tools and knowledge they need to effectively represent our communities and stand up for all of us. Community Organizing: Over the last eight years, LCV and LCVEF have expanded our focus on grassroots community organizing, particularly with communities of color who are disproportionately impacted by environmental racism and climate change and excluded by decision makers. Our Chispa program operates in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Nevada and Texas to grow grassroots leadership from low-income Latinx families. Chispa’s Clean Buses for Healthy Niños campaign has pressured local, state and federal decision makers to switch their dirty diesel school buses to electric buses that protect children’s health and improve air quality. Other organizing programs across the Conservation Voter Movement work with Black, indigenous, rural and other communities to ensure that those who are most impacted have the collective voice and power to influence change. This position requires an intensely creative and strategic thinker who can draw on years of organizing, issue campaign and civic engagement experience and who is focused on building a grassroots base that can urge decision-makers to take unprecedented bold action to expand our democracy and confront climate change. As an Executive Team member, the SVP of Community & Civic Engagement (CCE) contributes to the successful operation of the entire organization.
