About Great Homes and Neighborhoods for All: Great Homes and Neighborhoods for All
(GHNA) believes everyone in New Jersey deserves an affordable place to live in a safe, vibrant,
climate-safe community. GHNA is a statewide, pro-housing initiative that publicly launched in
November 2024 to tackle New Jersey’s housing and neighborhood challenges, inadequate
systems for land use and zoning, and the resulting racial, socioeconomic, and health inequities
through a 3-pronged strategy: 1) advocating for state policy changes, 2) supporting local
planning, and 3) cultivating a network of local pro-housing campaigns. The initiative is led by a
Steering Committee that includes advocates for smart growth, fair housing, and housing justice;
for-profit and nonprofit developers, and community development leaders; academics, local
pro-housing campaign representatives, and land use planners. More information is available at
bit.ly/ghna_nj.
POSITION SUMMARY: New Jersey Future is seeking a Local Campaign Coordinator within the
Land Use team to help the Great Homes and Neighborhoods for All initiative build a statewide,
pro-housing movement to address our state’s housing supply and affordability crisis. A key
piece of this work involves cultivating a network of local campaigns and supporting local land
use planning. The Local Campaign Coordinator will help seed the launch of new pro-housing
groups, while also building relationships with existing local organizations. Overall, the
coordinator will be responsible for developing and implementing GHNA’s educational,
outreach, and organizing strategy within key municipalities.
The Local Campaign Coordinator will report to the Policy Manager, Housing and Land Use. New
Jersey Future offers a fun, fast-paced, supportive work environment and the ability to make a difference. While NJF employees work a hybrid work-from-home/in-office schedule, this position will require work in the field and periodic travel throughout the state.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
Organizing: Build power through a network of local pro-housing campaigns
Establish and develop relationships with local residents, civic leaders, grassroots groups, local elected officials, and others in order to facilitate the launch of pro-housing campaigns across the state and build a network of effective advocates.
Build local capacity by coaching and providing organizing and campaign support to community members and local groups. Campaign support may include identifying issues, developing a strategy chart, planning tactics, and power-mapping.
Develop resources and trainings on organizing, advocacy, planning and housing policy.
Connect supportive community members and pro-housing local elected officials to resources and state-level advocacy opportunities. Mobilize supporters to take action on policy priorities.
Track local engagement and analyze CRM data to measure success and adjust strategies.
Local Policy and Planning
Remain current on relevant policies, best practices, and housing/zoning reforms advancing in other cities and states in order to make policy and regulatory reform recommendations.
Track municipal ordinances, zoning changes, and municipal planning processes in key locations, and work to pass local-level pro-housing reforms.
In collaboration with GHNA staff and Steering Committee members, advance ideas to improve and support local land use planning.
Administrative, Communications, and Project Support
Provide project coordination for the broader GHNA initiative, and collaborate effectively with Land Use team members and partners.
Assist with grant proposals, budget tracking, and funders’ reporting requirements.
Contribute ideas for newsletter and listserv content at monthly Land Use / Communications meetings and assist in implementing overall GHNA communications strategy.
Assist with social media content development.
Help supervise intern projects, as needed.
Support broader organizational efforts, such as NJF’s annual Planning and Redevelopment Conference.
