NARAL Pro-Choice America

Deputy Digital Director

 

NARAL Pro-Choice America, the nation’s leading pro-choice advocacy group, is seeking a highly-motivated and goal-oriented Deputy Digital Director to work with the Digital Director to develop the strategy and manage the implementation of the organization’s digital campaigns.

 

NARAL Pro Choice America is dedicated to protecting and expanding reproductive freedom for all Americans. With more than 1.2 million member activists from all 50 states and a network of state affiliates, NARAL works to guarantee that women have access to the full range of reproductive freedoms. We are on the front lines in the fight to expand access to abortion, make contraception more affordable, prohibit discrimination against pregnant women, and ensure all parents have access to paid leave.

Like 7 in 10 Americans, we believe abortion must remain legal and accessible. We are the foot soldiers who work to ensure that abortion access is not only protected, but expanded for every American. Since 1969, our member-driven campaigns have propelled political and cultural change at every level, from the statehouse to the White House.

When it comes time to rally by the thousands on the steps of the Supreme Court in support of abortion access, our members are there. When it comes time to push back against the daily lies and fear peddled by anti-choice zealots who want to drag our country backward in time, our members are there. And when it comes time to hold political leaders accountable at the ballot box, our members are there.

Working together, we push our friends to be bolder, lift up the champions fighting for true reproductive freedom, and shine a spotlight of accountability on the bad actors trying to impose their out-of-touch agenda on us all.

The Deputy Digital Director will work closely with the Digital Director to develop and implement the strategy of the organization’s digital campaigns as well as manage the day-to-day functioning of the Digital department including email advocacy, social media, fundraising and online communications.
