Careers

Community Change Action, and its sister organization Community Change, work to build the power and capacity of low-income people, especially low-income people of color, to change the policies and institutions that impact their lives.

Careers

Culture

Our staff are agents of change in the world, and we want them to be able to lead their work and personal lives with presence, power, and vision.

How We Work

As an organization, we view our staff as agents of change in the world and we want them to be able to lead their work and personal lives with presence, power and vision.

By 2033, we will improve dramatically the material conditions for people struggling to make ends meet in the United States, particularly poor people of color, as measured by changes in poverty rates and racial and gender disparities.

Remote First

After an abrupt pivot in March 2020, we decided to support a permanent transition to remote work for most staff.

Reflection

We created several opportunities for our staff to engage in reflection and dialogue that can foster new learning.

Our Full Selves

We aim to support a personal-professional balance that is rare in the organizing and social justice world.

What We Value

Creativity

Organizing for transformation requires us to imagine a world that we have never seen.

Compassion

Justice is what love looks like in public, and love for our communities drives our work.

Courage

We take risks and communicate courageously because that is how people, organizations, and movements grow stronger.

What We Offer

Paid Time Off

Up to 20 days of paid vacation time for full-time employees in addition to paid discretionary and sick leave, paid leave between December 25 and January 1, paid leave during the week of 4th of July and several 4-day holidays.
