Job Description
The National Employment Law Project (NELP) seeks a skilled relationship-builder with a talent for managing complex projects to join our Worker Power team in the role of Senior Program Manager in the Berkeley, California office.
Who We Are
Founded in 1969, the nonprofit National Employment Law Project (NELP) is a leading advocacy organization with the mission to build a just and inclusive economy where all workers have expansive rights and thrive in good jobs. Together with local, state, and national partners, NELP advances its mission through transformative legal and policy solutions, research, capacity building, and communications. Our victories over the last decade have impacted the lives of an estimated 100 million workers and their families. We lead and collaborate in fights for higher pay and just benefits, secure and safe jobs, and support at each stage in a worker’s life. For more information, read our annual reports and explore our website: www.nelp.org.
NELP has a team of 55 staff people based across offices in New York City, Washington D.C., and Berkeley, CA, with an 11-person Board of Directors, an annual budget of $20M, and hundreds of partners in the field with whom we work to further our mission.
What You Will Do
You will be a member of our Worker Power team, reporting to the team’s Director. You will work with NELP’s staff of lawyers, policy experts, researchers, and strategic communications experts. You will primarily focus on coordinating and managing a groundbreaking statewide community and government agency partnership—the California Strategic Enforcement Partnership (CSEP), which was formed in 2016 to tackle wage theft in California. Through CSEP, community partners help to identify significant cases, and support workers throughout the process. Although the position is primarily focused on CSEP at this time, there is an opportunity to expand into other Worker Power team projects and initiatives. The Worker Power team includes the Worker Center Program, as well as housing NELP’s exploratory climate justice work and other work that seeks to ground policy in building worker power and worker engagement.
Your work will include coordinating and independently managing the ongoing work of CSEP to support the achievement of its vision and strategies by:
- Effectively building and maintaining relationships with CSEP partners and diverse stakeholders, with attention to complexity, power dynamics, and language justice.
- Supporting capacity building of worker centers and legal organizations in CSEP, including: identifying common challenges and opportunities, sharing learning and strategies from across the partnership, and connecting partnership participants with strategic research and communications support.
- Leveraging learnings from the CSEP model to promote community-agency partnerships, including developing materials such as policy briefs, brochures, presentations, and talking points.
- Supporting CSEP with overall independent project management, including planning and executing meetings, ranging from one-on-one meetings with funder stakeholders to 100+ person annual gatherings, with support from colleagues and consultants.
- Supporting a workplace culture where all team members grow and develop professionally.
- Actively contributing to NELP’s work in becoming an anti-racist organization that reflects and embodies internally the values of dignity, justice, equity, and inclusion.
Who You Are
- You have nine+ years’ advocacy, organizing and/or coalition-building experience promoting labor and employment rights, civil rights and racial justice, or other social or economic justice issues.
- You are a leader who builds relationships that foster trust and transparency across lines of difference, and have a track record of developing and maintaining alliances.
- You have a proven track record of working in coalition with diverse groups, such as: community-based organizations, funders, legal advocates, labor, government agencies, and worker centers.
- You have an understanding of, or a curiosity about, how policy and legal strategies can be tools to support organizing and worker power building.
- You have strong racial equity competencies and center your role in an analysis and understanding of how race and power shape systems in our society and culture and are continuously learning, reflecting, and growing.
- You care about the big picture and are adept at managing a multitude of details. You have created systems and leveraged tools for managing deliverables, milestones and deadlines. You are a problem-solver with strong organizational skills.
- You are self-aware, curious, and respectful with strong interpersonal skills fostering a sense of purpose and community and have high standards for holding yourself and others accountable.
- You operate with a commitment to excellence, integrity, diplomacy, and camaraderie.
Start Date, Location, Compensation and Benefits: In response to the pandemic, all staff have the option to work remotely on a temporary basis and are traveling infrequently. When conditions are amenable, the position will require some travel, including within California and to the East Coast for NELP internal meetings or conferences. We will consider candidates who will work from our Berkeley, California office. NELP currently offers voluntary access to all office locations. When NELP returns to working in the physical office, staff will work in-person at least six days per month; this hybrid model seeks to leverage both the benefits of working with colleagues in-person and the benefits of flexible remote arrangements. The start date will be as soon as possible.
This position is in NELP’s bargaining unit, represented by National Organization of Legal Service Workers, UAW Local 2320. Classification and compensation for NELP bargaining unit positions is commensurate with relevant experience and education and based on NELP’s collectively bargained scales. Based on our union scale, the salary range for this position is $94,200 - $105,200, depending on years of relevant experience and education.
Compensation also includes an excellent comprehensive benefits package, including full coverage of family health insurance, a medical reimbursement plan, generous vacation and sick leave, plus additional organization-wide holidays, significant contribution from employer to a retirement plan (both an unelected contribution and employer match); and for qualifying participants, up to 26 weeks paid parental leave, 12 weeks paid medical leave, 6 weeks of paid family medical caregiving leave, a sabbatical leave program, childcare/eldercare reimbursement assistance, and student load repayment assistance.

Job Description
BACKGROUND
The Outwords Archive (OUTWORDS) captures, preserves, and shares the stories of LGBTQ+ elders across the United States, to build community and catalyze social change.
Since 2016, OUTWORDS has recorded nearly 300 interviews with LGBTQ+ elders in 38 states. It is critically important for us to document the diverse firsthand accounts of these elders while they are still alive to tell them.
DESCRIPTION
OUTWORDS seeks a skilled Educational Initiatives Consultant excited by, and dedicated to, the organization’s mission, vision, and core values. The primary goal of this short-term engagement will be to develop a strategic plan specifically around how OUTWORDS can most efficiently and effectively distribute its educational / inspirational content within the education space (not just formal educational settings, but any structured environment where queer and allied youth ages 13-18 gather for friendship, mutual support, and learning).
This is a 2-3 month project with a budget of $4000-5000 to develop the strategic plan, and an additional $1500 budget to fund the implementation of two educational initiatives from the plan, such as adding licensing information to our website or creating a template for OUTWORDS educational handouts at our events.
EQUITY, DIVERSITY, AND INCLUSION
As a signatory to the Anti-Racist Small Business pledge [https://theoutwordsarchive.org/mission-vision-and-values/#antiracism-pledge] OUTWORDS applies an equity lens to all of its hiring decisions, seeking to provide opportunities to individuals and communities that have traditionally been underrepresented and/or excluded from the media production industry. We are committed to creating, exploring, and maintaining an environment where new, unpopular and/or controversial ideas are safely expressed, and encourage the exchange of such views in an environment of tolerance, curiosity, and mutual respect.
Archiving as a form of social justice also includes actively seeking out interviewees who are BIPOC, living with disabilities, transgender/gender non-conforming, or other marginalized identities, and to actively reverse and rectify historical erasure by recording, preserving, and sharing these stories with respect and care.
All qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, creed, color, national origin, sex, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, military status, or the use of a trained dog guide or service animal by a person with a disability. OUTWORDS will furthermore consider applicants who may need a reasonable accommodation to perform the essential functions/duties. Please send a message via Indeed for additional information or to request reasonable accommodations for the application or interview process.
QUALIFICATIONS
The Educational Initiatives Consultant will be primarily responsible, in this initial short-term engagement, for creating a strategic education distribution plan and implementing one or more initiatives from the plan. To this end, the work will include:
- Reviewing and developing a deep understanding of OUTWORDS’ content and its potential applications
- Evaluating opportunities within formal educational settings as mandated by some state laws (for example, the California FAIR Education Act, SB 48)
- Evaluating opportunities for sharing OUTWORDS’ content in other settings within schools (for example, Gay-Straight Alliances or GSA’s)
- Evaluating opportunities for sharing OUTWORDS’ content through partnerships with other organizations (the It Gets Better Project; Boys & Girls Clubs; Big Brothers / Big Sisters; etc.)
- Exploring possibilities for licensing OUTWORDS’ content and editorial services to outside companies providing cultural competency training
- Promoting OUTWORDS as a tool for academic and other researchers
- Brainstorming other educational initiatives and how OUTWORDS can best fulfill them
Ideal Candidate will possess the following qualities:
- Background in, and passion for education
- Demonstrated experience in the field of education, and specifically working with youth ages 13-18
- Knowledge of the LGBTQ+ educational programming environment
- Attention to detail
- Curiosity
- Ability to communicate and ask questions
- Research
- Timeliness
HOW TO APPLY
In an attempt to establish a shared culture contribution, please submit a brief cover letter and resume via our Indeed listing. Candidates who do not submit a cover letter will not be considered. In your cover letter, please describe your familiarity with the LGBTQIA2S+ community, your commitment to Anti-Racism work, and why you are interested in this position. We will begin interviewing in March with a start date in late March/early April.

Job Description
POSITION TITLE: Outreach Coalition Manager (OCM)
LOCATION/NEIGHBORHOOD: 65 Laguna Street, San Francisco, CA 94102; San Francisco neighborhood – Hayes Valley
REMOTE/ON-SITE/COMBO: Combination on onsite and remote work
DEPARTMENT: Administration
REPORTS TO: Executive Director
FLSA STATUS: Full-time, Exempt
FTE STATUS: 1.00
PUBLIC TRANSIT PROXIMITY: ½ block from F Line, 1 block from Bus lines 6 & 7
SCHEDULE
Number of hrs. per week: 40hrs
Days of the week: M-F (occasional night or weekend work as needed)
POSITION SUMMARY: Openhouse is seeking to hire a dynamic Outreach Coalition Manager who will work with our Executive Director to develop and facilitate a statewide coalition of service providers, LGBTQ organizations and local and state agencies that provide services, housing and programs to LGBTQ older Californians. As of yet, the state of California has no data on the aging experience of the LGBTQ community. This ground-breaking study is the first time we will have baseline data on the barriers to care, needs, similarities and differences of the aging experience for LGBTQ Californians age 55 and older. The coalition is part of a larger effort, funded by the California Department of Aging, to learn about the aging experience for LGBTQ Californians age 55 and older. The manager will also be responsible for helping to facilitate meetings of an advisory committee who will work with the researchers to ensure applicability and relevance of the study instrument.
Over the next year the Outreach Coalition Manager will reach out to a broad spectrum of LGBTQ organizations, state and local agencies and NGOs that serve the LGBTQ senior community of California. The state of California has over 30 Area Agencies on Aging and over 50 LGBTQ Centers as well as a large number of organizations that specialize in care LGBTQ elders or traditional providers of care that have been trained to understand the barriers and challenges LGBTQ elders face as they age. The goal is to create a strong coalition of 200 community organizations and agencies that will inform the research and help to get the survey into the hands of LGBTQ older adults who can complete it.
California is a diverse state, and the LGBTQ population is just as diverse. Representation from organizations that represent BIPOC, API, transgender, women, rural and frontier community members is essential. Thus, for the coalition to be successful it must be a reflection of the community we are seeking to learn more about.
In addition, the position will require organizing meetings via Zoom and may include one or two in person meetings, creating agendas, helping to facilitate information sharing across organization and with the research team and work with the Executive Director and others on the research team to recruit members of the Advisory Committee. Finally, the Manager will work with local organizations to promote the survey in their local communities successfully having 2,000 completed surveys.

ABOUT FUNDERS FOR LGBTQ ISSUES
Funders for LGBTQ Issues works to increase the scale and impact of philanthropic resources aimed at enhancing the well-being of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer communities, promoting equity, and advancing racial, economic and gender justice. We are a network of funders committed to advancing equity and well-being for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, & queer (LGBTQ) communities.
We provide three essential services:
- Organize convenings and forums for LGBTQ funders to connect, coordinate their efforts, learn from each other, and maximize their impact.
- Provide training and support services for foundations to help them increase their LGBTQ inclusiveness in grantmaking and internal practices.
- Provide up-to-the-minute information, research, and resources on LGBTQ grantmaking to benefit funders and the broader LGBTQ movement.
Funders for LGBTQ Issues is unique in that the organization not only raises funds to support its work but also works to increase resources for the LGBTQ movement, particularly the most under-served communities within the LGBTQ movement, such as LGBTQ people of color, transgender communities, and women. Please visit www.lgbtfunders.org for more information on our work.
Overview of the Position
In response to long-standing under-funding of trans communities in the United States, Funders for LGBTQ Issues launched Grantmakers United for Trans Communities (GUTC) in 2017 - a significant initiative designed to increase the scale and impact of funding for transgender, gender non-conforming, and non-binary communities by shifting the culture of philanthropy to be inclusive and supportive of transgender people, and mainly centering BIPOC Trans GNC (TGNC) individuals.
The GUTC initiative has three main components:
- A pledge campaign to raise trans awareness and cultural competency among funders and to galvanize them to action by taking specific steps to increase their funding of TGNC issues as well as their internal trans inclusiveness;
- A fellowship program to support TGNC leaders working in institutional philanthropy to build the power of transgender people in this sector; and
- Supporting organizing and collaborative projects among funder networks to provide a space for them to learn from one another and coordinate their efforts to increase funding for transgender communities.
The Grantmakers United for Trans Communities (GUTC) Project Director will play a leadership role in advancing all three components with the broader mission of helping to increase philanthropic support of transgender communities across the United States and its territories. The GUTC Project Director will also play a key role in Funders for LGBTQ Issues’ programs team, working in close collaboration with our Out in the South initiative and our other philanthropic organizing projects.

- You are a relationship-builder. You have strong interpersonal skills, enjoy connecting individuals, and have a track record of developing and maintaining alliances.
- You have a proven track record of working in coalition with groups, such as community-based organizations, advocacy organizations, and worker centers.

- You have strong racial equity competencies, including an understanding of how race and power shape systems in our society and culture.
