About NARAL Pro-Choice America
For more than 50 years, NARAL Pro-Choice America and its chapters have fought to protect and expand reproductive freedom —including access to abortion and contraception — for every body.
We are powered by our more than 2.5 million members from every state and congressional district in the country, representing the 7 in 10 Americans who believe every person should have the freedom to make the best decision for themselves about if, when, and how to raise a family.
NARAL Pro-Choice America centers diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice in our organization and our work. Continuously learning from our history, we hold ourselves accountable to achieve reproductive freedom with equitable access for everybody.
As the oldest and largest national membership organization primarily focused on advocating for abortion access, we organize and mobilize, galvanizing millions of people to take action to defend reproductive freedom, and shining a spotlight of accountability on bad actors who work to impose their ideological agenda on others. We also work to elect champions for reproductive freedom and advance state and federal legislation to safeguard it.
About the role:
NARAL Pro-Choice America is seeking a Southwest Regional Organizing Manager (based in Arizona), to identify, train, and support volunteers and volunteer leaders to move decision-makers, elect pro-choice candidates, and win campaigns. Our Organizing Manager will also oversee our work in three states (Arizona, Nevada, and Colorado) and manage and mentor two staff to achieve our organizing vision.

- Advance the advocacy needed for legislative and electoral priorities.
- Prioritize building power through volunteer leader development.
- Prioritize recruiting, mentoring, training, and supporting NARAL volunteer leaders, including those directly affected by the fight for reproductive freedom, to establish self-sustaining “Action Councils.” (Action Councils are groups of all-volunteer leaders committed to working on NARAL priority campaigns by, for example, running events, recruiting for rallies, and engaging in rapid response.)
- Support Action Council leaders in creating and executing organizing plans to achieve campaign goals.

- Manage 2 staff members plus an intern. Work with them to set goals, build organizing plans and build volunteer leadership in other states in the Regional Organizing Manager’s region.
- Work with the Organizing Director to build and maintain a collegial and powerful organizing team using a shared language and organizing model, ongoing training and development, and a collaborative, mentoring working relationship with junior staff.
Qualifications:
- We are looking for someone with several years of experience in building healthy volunteer teams that allow each volunteer to contribute to their fullest and thrive.

- Excellent organizational ability, attention to detail, and strong verbal and written communication skills.
