    Default job background
    Description

    The NAACP Legal Defense & Educational Fund, Inc. (LDF) is the country's first and foremost civil and human rights law organization. Founded in 1940 under the leadership of Thurgood Marshall, who subsequently became the first Black U.S. Supreme Court Justice, LDF was launched at a time when the nation's aspirations for equality and due process of law were stifled by widespread state-sponsored racial inequality. From that era to the present, LDF's mission has been transformative - to achieve racial justice, equality, and an inclusive society.

    LDF's litigation, public policy advocacy and public education programs in the substantive areas of criminal justice, economic justice, education, and political participation seek to ensure the fundamental and basic human rights of all people to quality education, economic opportunity, the right to vote and fully participate in democracy, and the right to a fair and just judicial system. LDF continues to make an impact in the area of public service and was recognized by Fast Company as one of its 2023 Brands That Matter under its public service category.

    The Deputy Manager for Civic Engagement will help lead LDF's civic engagement and voter education efforts through the VRD/PTV Project. The Deputy Manager will develop a strategy and implement LDF's outreach to voters and partner organizations to encourage participation in democracy through voting, elections, and holding elected officials accountable. We are looking for someone who has great political sense and knowledge of campaigns, elections, politicians, outside groups, and/or voting rights. The ideal candidate should possess a good understanding of the elections process. The Deputy Manager will report to the Senior Deputy Director of Strategic Initiatives.
