About Los Angeles LGBT Center

The Los Angeles LGBT Center is the world’s largest LGBT organization of any kind. In 10 locations across Los Angeles, the Center’s nearly 800 employees and hundreds of volunteers offer programs, services, and global advocacy that span four broad categories: Health, Social Services and Housing, Culture and Education, and Leadership and Advocacy. The Center is an unstoppable force in the fight against bigotry and the struggle to build a better world.

The Center’s flagship Anita May Rosenstein Campus in the heart of Hollywood offers housing, legal, social, cultural, and educational services, with unique programs for seniors, families, youth, and the transgender community. Youth services include emergency, transitional, and independent housing, a drop-in center, and comprehensive education and employment programs. Senior services include more than 200 affordable apartments, food assistance, employment support, educational and recreational programming, and outreach.  

A Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) since 2013, the Center’s healthcare services include one of the first medical programs for people living with HIV and AIDS; HIV and STI testing; a full range of PrEP and PEP services; as well as HIV education, prevention, and outreach programs. The Center also provides comprehensive healthcare to the transgender community, gynecological and pelvic care, fertility, hormone balancing, and well-woman care. Additionally, the Center operates a full-service pharmacy.

The Center fights to advance civil rights and freedoms for LGBTQ people domestically and internationally through education, advocacy, and community organizing. They advocate for policies and funding that advance the health and wellness of the diverse LGBTQ community. To build a stronger LGBTQ community, they provide leadership development programs for activists and technical assistance for LGBTQ organizations everywhere.

A team of staff and volunteer attorneys, law students, and paralegals serve the legal needs of LGBTQ people with a special focus on survivors of violence, undocumented immigrants, the transgender community, and youth. They also provide cultural competency trainings and workshops for institutions and other providers.

 

A full slate of cultural and educational programming is offered at The Village at Ed Gould Plaza. The facility includes a 200-seat theater, a smaller black-box theater, an art gallery, and rooms for meetings and classes.

 

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Center continued to provide essential first-responder services where possible, shifted programs to virtual, and developed new programs such as the Pride Pantry food bank. Last year, in response to the nationwide MPX (monkeypox) crisis, the Center led vaccination and testing efforts in Los Angeles and collaborated with local and national organizations for increased state and federal funding to combat the public health emergency.

FULL-TIME JOB VACANCY

Human Rights Watch (HRW) is an international human rights research and advocacy organization known for its in-depth investigations, its incisive and timely reporting, its innovative and high-profile advocacy campaigns, and its success in changing the human rights-related policies and practices of influential governments and international institutions. We’re comprised of over 600 staff in more than 50 countries.

Our mission is as urgent as it has ever been, and it faces complex new challenges. We must contend with the failures of governments to meet their obligations on water, land, education, and food. We must respond to conflict and crisis on an extraordinary scale, and we must confront the persistence of repression around the world. Climate change, the resurgence of authoritarian populism, rapidly advancing technologies, and the effects of deep inequality all compound these threats to rights. Innovation, efficiency, and diversity are critical to our success in meeting these challenges, and to delivering sustained impact. 

The Opportunity

Human Rights Watch is seeking a human rights professional to lead its Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Rights Program, one of HRW’s eight thematic research and advocacy programs, made up of 9 staff.

Job Description

The Opportunity

Since 1978, GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders (GLAD) has achieved scores of precedent-setting legal victories to end discrimination based on gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, and HIV status. Time after time, GLAD has broken through resistance and prejudice to make real progress for transgender rights, family protections and marriage equality, LGBTQ+ youth rights, protections for people living with HIV and much more. GLAD is focused on working at the cutting edge of LGBTQ+ rights, advancing strategies to address discrimination occurring at the intersections of race and LGBTQ+ status, and keeping a close watch on a counter-movement that is fighting hard to roll back critical progress.

We are at a critical moment in our efforts for LGBTQ+ justice, racial justice, and lived equality. The rights of LGBTQ+ people, and transgender individuals in particular, are under attack, as evidenced by the over 500 anti-LGBTQ bills filed in 45 state legislatures this year and efforts by opponents to expand religious exemptions to LGBTQ+ nondiscrimination protections through a conservative-leaning federal judiciary. 

To deepen and expand our legal and advocacy work into our next chapter, GLAD seeks a staff attorney to engage in GLAD’s cutting-edge impact litigation, public policy advocacy, and education. The Staff Attorney will work independently and collaboratively within a team made up of some of the most experienced LGBTQ+ advocates in the movement, and will have the opportunity to be mentored and grow into the next generation of legal advocates and leaders for the LGBTQ+ community. 

 

About the Role

GLAD seeks an attorney with a minimum of 3-7 years of litigation, legal research and writing, and/or policy experience, who has a passion for LGBTQ+ and/or HIV work as well as all related social justice issues that impact the LGBTQ+ community, including racial justice. Reporting to one of the senior directors in the department and working in collaboration with the legal team, the Staff Attorney will handle an active workload of litigation, legislation, and policy issues to advance GLAD’s organizational priorities. 

This position presents an opportunity for an emerging legal leader to learn from GLAD’s experienced and intergenerational legal team, helping create and implement strategies using legislation, litigation, policy, and public education to advance justice on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and HIV status, and exemplify commitment to racial justice. 

The Staff Attorney works collaboratively with the Legal Department and other GLAD staff to: 

  • Contribute to the legal department's decision-making strategy, help identify and assess matters for impact litigation, and file cases in state and federal court and other disputes. 
  • Serve on litigation teams, including being involved in case and client development, legal research, pleadings and briefs drafting, discovery and motion practice, hearings, trials, and appeals. 
  • Support amicus curiae efforts through brief writing and coordination. 
  • Provide technical expertise and support to private litigators and organizations facing complex LGBTQ issues in state and federal courts and government agencies. 
  • Monitor and selectively engage in legal policy and legislative affairs and developments, both in federal law and with respect to the laws and governments of the New England states and nationally, through consultation and collaboration, legal research and drafting, identifying stakeholders and experts, lobbying, and public education. 
  • Provide support for GLAD Answers, GLAD’s legal information and referral service, including by working up legal intakes and providing individual support or legal referrals, where appropriate, to people who seek legal help. 
  • Engage in select legal, community, and stakeholder presentations, events, forums, including information sharing and developing and representing GLAD positions to the media and the public.

Location

This is a national remote-eligible position with the expectation of regular travel every other month to GLAD’s office in Boston. 

 

45 Years of Groundbreaking Work

GLAD has been changing history since our founding in 1978. GLAD argued the Supreme Court case that established people living with HIV are protected under the Americans with Disabilities Act. GLAD lawyers broke ground on some of the movement’s earliest transgender rights victories, including winning the first appeals court decision to affirm that discrimination based upon transgender identity is prohibited under sex discrimination laws as well as landmark rulings in areas including gender affirming medical care and transgender students’ educational access. GLAD’s decades-long leadership in the marriage equality movement culminated in arguing for and winning the freedom to marry nationally at the U.S. Supreme Court in 2015. 

Now in its fifth decade, GLAD is well positioned to leverage its substantial experience and track record of strategic victories to address systemic discrimination, push back against efforts to reverse progress, and expand access to equity and justice for the entire community.

 

GLAD’s Mission, Structure and Values
Through strategic litigation, legislation, public policy advocacy, and education, GLAD works in New England and nationally to create a just society free of discrimination based on gender identity and expression, HIV status, and sexual orientation. 

Headquartered in Boston, MA and governed by a Board of Directors, GLAD operates with a $4+ million annual budget and 30+ staff and interns. 

GLAD operates with a commitment to the following organizational values: Justice and Lived Equality; Inclusion, Equity, and Mutual Respect; Anti-Racism; and Collaboration.

Visit www.GLAD.org to learn more about our work, history, staff, board and values.  

 

Justice for All 

GLAD’s newly adopted strategic plan endeavors to deepen our national leadership and impact, expand our legal capacity, protect a multiracial, pluralistic democracy, and sustain an antiracist and intergenerational movement for the long term.

 

Our Commitment to Racial Justice

GLAD is focused on ensuring that our legal strategies to advance LGBTQ+ equity and equality acknowledge intersecting oppressions and advance interlocking social movements, particularly movements for racial justice. 

GLAD’s work focuses on both harm reduction within systems that disproportionately target and harm LGBTQ+ people of color as well as the imperative to reform, dismantle and create alternatives to the systems themselves. LGBTQ+ youth of color are over-disciplined in school, disproportionately targeted by police, and disproportionately represented in the child welfare and juvenile justice systems. LGBTQ+ adults of color are disproportionately represented and face exceptionally brutal treatment in our systems of incarceration. The HIV epidemic continues to disproportionately harm communities of color, especially gay men of color, who lack the same access to life-saving prophylactic medications such as PrEP.  

GLAD challenges discriminatory systems, policies and practices; engages in intentional, sustained partnerships with LGBTQ communities of color; and works to build and maintain coalitions with allied social justice movements. We pay equal attention to our organizational culture, practices, and staff and board composition to ensure that they reflect these values.

Job Description

About Building Movement Project

Since its founding in 1999, the Building Movement Project (BMP) has been on the front edge of understanding and illuminating the issues, trends, and practices that enable the nonprofit sector – including the constellation of networks, organizations, and movements working for justice and equity – to be effective in a rapidly changing ecosystem. BMP provides insightful research, practical resources, and pathways for transformative relationships that support nonprofit organizations, networks, and movements in their work to create a just and equitable world. BMP imagines a world where all community members live with dignity and power, supported by diverse and resilient organizations, networks and movements that work to eradicate root causes of inequity and injustice.

In order to achieve this bold mission, BMP sits at the unique intersection of social justice movement work and rigorous, cutting-edge research and analysis. Providing credibility on both fronts, BMP stands alone as an organization, offering unmatched insights to the field. Over the organization’s 25 years, BMP has put out over 65 reports (with more to come) and written two books, in addition to publishing toolkits and resources to support cross-movement solidarity, racial equity in nonprofit organizations, and community engagement. BMP has been well-supported by partners and funders throughout the philanthropic sector to expand their work, including a generous grant from Mackenzie Scott in 2021. Today, BMP has a roughly $3m budget with funds in reserve. 

A multi-generational, multi-racial, and geographically dispersed team of 14 committed and passionate team members enables work that pushes forward “the Three Rs” - research, resources, and relationships - for the field. BMP’s organizational culture values care and collaboration, while providing staff with the autonomy and resources to be effective in their work. Supporting BMP is an Advisory Board comprised of sector thought-leaders from around the country who offer strategic insights. As a fully remote organization, BMP is well-prepared with systems and structures to allow for flexibility across the entire staff. While all staff work remotely from different cities, the majority of staff are in Eastern Standard Time Zone.

Building Movement Project is fiscally sponsored by TSNE.

Opportunity

Against the backdrop of increasingly polarized political and social divisions, BMP’s organizational health is stronger than ever. With a solid foundation of fiscal strength and a respected organizational reputation, BMP is ready to define its next chapter with new leadership. Looking forward, BMP is excited to hire either a single Executive Director, who will have the funding and support to assess organizational and leadership opportunities and then hire a Co-Executive Director or other senior leadership team member in the first year, or a pair of Co-Executive Directors through this search process. 

Currently, five roles report jointly to the sitting Co-Executive Directors: Senior Director of Strategic Partnerships, Senior Director of Institutional Advancement, Senior Manager of Partnership, Director of Research, and Director of Race Equity Assessment. This structure may evolve or continue under new leadership. The Executive Director or Co-Executive Directors will report directly to the Advisory Board, under the guideline and support of TSNE, as fiscal sponsor. This is a full-time, exempt position.

  • A well-established national network of nonprofit and philanthropic leaders

  • Familiarity with facilitation and leading conversations about complex topics, including race, class, gender, sexual identity, and abilities - and how they play out in individuals, organizations, and systems


Vision-Setting, Execution, and Implementation

  • Weave together the current successful work of BMP and future opportunities into a cohesive vision that incorporates input from the Advisory Board, staff, and voices from the field, upholding existing commitments to partners and identifying new needs

  1. Single Executive Director applicants who will have the flexibility and funding to add to the staff in the way they see most fit or 
  2. A pair of Co-Executive Director applicants who would divide the roles and work based on their expertise and interests.

Job Description

About The Center

Since our founding in 1983, The LGBT Community Center (The Center) has been a place of hope and a refuge for the LGBTQ+ community in New York. We are today - as we were then - a place of safety, connection, activism, and joy.

As we celebrate our 40th Anniversary, the time is right to reflect on the past and share our vision for the next 40 years, supported by new thinking around what “community” means in these times. Recent years have shaped us in ways that have spurred a profound commitment- in theory and practice- to racial, economic, and gender equity. We have a renewed sense of purpose to center the perspectives and needs of Black people, Indigenous people, and People of Color (BIPOC), as well as transgender and gender expansive (TGE) communities.  Our new core values will guide the direction we take today and, in the years to come, committing us to the following: advocating for racial, gender, and economic justice using an intersectional lens, taking a community-driven approach, elevating collaboration, and fostering healing and joy.

At 40, we look back with pride for all we’ve accomplished and made possible, but also with humility in acknowledgment of the mistakes we’ve made along the way. There is still so much more to do together as we continue to build a future where our entire community shines.

The last few years have challenged how people access services, interact with each other and engage with their communities. We are plugged in digitally at a higher speed and scale, and yet isolation and threats to our community have never been more acute.

The fact is, even with virtual options, we know that the community centers movement is growing and thriving. There are 300 LGBTQ+ community centers in the country, and that number continues to climb. A staggering one in five LGBTQ+ people regularly use services at their local community center.  A source of healing, joy, and communal power, LGBT Centers are more vital and valuable than ever. We believe in the enduring power of this treasured space and the role it will play in years to come.

Job Description

About Pride Foundation:

Pride Foundation fuels transformational movements to advance equity and justice for LGBTQ+ people in all communities across the Northwest. We envision a world in which all LGBTQ+ people live safely and openly as our whole selves in the communities we call home.

Pride Foundation is the only community foundation by and for LGBTQ+ people and communities serving the Northwest region of Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington. Founded in 1985 during the height of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, Pride Foundation is the result of generations of leaders who brought simple but revolutionary values to our movement: the courage to truly see one another, the compassion to recognize our shared humanity, and the conviction to show up every day to protect one another. Pride Foundation has an operating budget of more than $6 million with 16 full time employees working from across the region we serve. Pride Foundation is governed by a Board of Directors with 17 members from across the five-state region with diverse professional and lived experiences.

As an organization and as individuals, we are committed to anti-racism, and strive to center racial equity and justice throughout our organization and all aspects of our programmatic work. Together, we are intentionally and actively building an internal culture that reflects this commitment, and an organization where our team members can thrive. All team members are a part of this work and are active participants in building our culture. Read more about the work culture we are building here and our 4 day work weeks here

About the Department of Community Advocacy, Research, and Education (CARE):

The Department of Community Advocacy, Research and Education is Pride Foundation’s newest department, developed to meet the evolving needs of the Pacific Northwest while deploying philanthropic tools for social transformation. While Pride Foundation’s grants and scholarships support the brilliant and dedicated organizations and leaders working to meet the needs of our communities, our CARE work takes a broader focus to transform culture in communities across the Northwest to make this vision a reality.

Since 2016, the work that has evolved to become the Department of CARE and has unapologetically centered BIPOC Trans, Nonbinary, Intersex, and Two-Spirit ancestral knowledge and lives. The ultimate goal of our CARE work is to create a Northwest region that is inhospitable to homophobia, transphobia, racism, misogyny, and all other forms of harm directed at LGBTQ+ communities. As a Department, CARE houses particular initiatives, programs, and projects. As of 2023, the primary program is the TRANSform Culture Program, with emergent programs around safety/wellness and trans-regional coalition-building in development.

 

About the Role:

Pride Foundation seeks a deeply embedded community leader and an experienced facilitator to help grow and sustain our Department of CARE. The CARE Senior Manager will bring an understanding of research and data justice frameworks, and commitment to centering community members as leaders and decision-makers, and an understanding of the intertwined relationship between community, power-building, policy, and research. The CARE Senior Manager also brings a strong, intersectional, racial, and gender justice analysis to this work. This includes understanding the difference between mobilizing and organizing in community work.

The Senior Manager will work closely with the Director of CARE across all aspects of Pride Foundation’s Community Advocacy, Research, and Education work, as well as build collaborative relationships across our internal departments.
