Due to a few staff departures and the funding to add several new positions, AIDS United in DC is hiring a whopping eight staff! You can find the listings here: https://aidsunited.org/careers/.
The positions are full-time (except for the part-time intern) and can be located anywhere in the US. When we return to in-person activities someday, we will have a small office in DC, although the vast majority of employees will continue to work from home either full- or part-time. And a large number of us are permanently remote, living all across the US. So you do not need to be located in the DC area to apply.
We have a majority BIPOC and LGBTQ staff, several of us are part of the trans community, and many of our younger staff (and very-middle-aged me) use they/them/theirs as our pronouns. For those in the DC area who may want to work in a physical office environment in the future, we’re also really casual, with many folx wearing jeans daily.

Job Description
BoardSource is a globally-recognized nonprofit focused on strengthening nonprofit leadership at the highest level — the board of directors. With more than three decades of experience, BoardSource is at the forefront of nonprofit board leadership, research, and support. BoardSource provides leaders with an extensive range of tools, resources, and research data to increase board effectiveness and strengthen organizational impact and serve as the national voice for inspired and effective board leadership.
Under the longtime leadership of its President and CEO Anne Wallestad, BoardSource has transformed itself from an organization primarily focused on meeting the technical support needs of individual boards to a more complex and influential organization that marries technical support for boards with a strong leadership voice advocating for necessary change in social sector board leadership, particularly to center equity and shift power toward the communities nonprofits serve. Wallestad will be stepping down from her role in June of 2022 after fourteen years with the organization and almost 10 years at the helm.
BoardSource now seeks a new leader who can build on the organization’s transformative momentum to reach new heights. The next President and CEO will strategize to:
- Deepen and expand the organization’s work to spark board-level change that advances racial equity within organizations, their work, and ultimately their communities;
- Design and build a robust research practice that can fuel data-driven insights about board leadership trends, practices, and opportunities for change; and
- Respond to the continually evolving educational and technical support needs of nonprofit boards and board leaders in a way that is relevant and scalable.
The new CEO will be a dynamic thought leader on the role of boards and excellence in nonprofit governance and will continue to build and nurture a strong staff team and board collaboration to advance the mission. The CEO will build on the strong work of a well-recognized organization and brand in pursuit of an impactful social sector that serves all people and communities for our collective social good.

CenterLink Overview
CenterLink strengthens, supports, and connects LGBTQ community centers. The organization was founded in 1994 as a member-based coalition to develop strong, sustainable LGBTQ community centers and build a thriving center network. CenterLink plays a key role in addressing the challenges centers face by helping them to improve their organizational and service delivery capacity, accessing public resources, and engaging their regional communities in the grassroots social justice movement. CenterLink is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit that envisions communities where LGBTQ people have access to flourishing community centers that advance their safety, equality, and well-being.
Serving over 290 LGBTQ community centers across the country in 48 states, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia and centers in Canada, China, Colombia, Australia, and Uganda, the organization assists newly forming community centers and helps bolster existing LGBTQ centers through networking opportunities for center leaders, peer-based technical assistance and training, and various capacity-building services. Our efforts are based on the belief that LGBTQ community centers are primary change agents in the national and international movements working toward the liberation and empowerment of LGBTQ people. Serving over two million people annually, they are the heart and soul of the LGBTQ movement and are vital to our current well-being and dreams for the future.
Whether they provide direct services, educate the public or organize for social change, community centers work more closely with their LGBTQ constituency and engage more community leaders and decision-makers than any other LGBTQ network in the country. As such, they are a hub for LGBTQ community organizing and innovation, a catalyst for progressive social change, and a provider of critical services for the LGBTQ community globally.
A fundamental goal of our mission is to help build the capacity of centers to meet the social, cultural, health, and political advocacy needs of LGBTQ community members across the country. CenterLink also acts as a voice for LGBTQ community centers in national grassroots organizing, coalition building, and social activism to strengthen and build a unified center movement.

CenterLink’s working tagline and positioning statement is:
CenterLink: Uniting LGBTQ Community Centers Worldwide

Some of these programs have served as models for other LGBTQ centers helping thousands of individuals and communities across the country.
Project Overview:
As CenterLink and the Johnson Family Foundation approach the 12th anniversary of this important Mental Health Initiative, CenterLink is seeking a video production professional to help us create and share a video highlighting the Initiative’s milestones and impact over the last decade. The video will showcase testimonials from key stakeholders, including previous grantees, mental health professionals, and members of CenterLink and the Johnson Family Foundation.
Project Scope:
The video series should outline the purpose, growth, and overall impact of the Johnson Family Mental Health Initiative. The video should convey the importance of addressing mental health awareness among the LGBTQ community. The video will need to effectively communicate what the Johnson Family Foundation Mental Health Initiative is, share the stories of those impacted by the Initiative, and the importance of the program to the LGBTQ community.
The video production partner(s) will work collaboratively with the CenterLink team on the design and vision of the video to complete:
- One 5-7 minute video focused on the Johnson Family Foundation Mental Health Initiative and its impact on the LGBTQ community over the past 12 years
- 5-6 promotional clips spanning between 30-120 seconds
Shooting will occur through February, March, and April of 2022 with 5-7 subjects around the country, and the final product(s) will be delivered by April 29, 2022. CenterLink and its consultants shall work to ensure that all COVID-19 protection protocols are followed, and every effort is made to ensure the safety of all participants.
The videos will be shared with CenterLink members and audiences on platforms such as Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and those of our affiliate partners. CenterLink will be the sole owner of all deliverables, copyrights, and other intellectual property relating to the videos.

- Ensure alignment with overall objectives, timelines, and budget.

Job Description
The Aspen Leadership Group is proud to partner with the Stonewall National Museum & Archives in the search for an Executive Director.
Reporting to the Chair of the Board of Directors, the Executive Director of the Stonewall National Museum & Archives (SNMA) will excite organizational growth, drive significant fundraising efforts, and commit to strengthening the inclusivity of SNMA’s collections with an eye toward being relevant in the national LGBTQ+ historical and heritage conversation while maintaining a strong presence in the South Florida region.
Founded in 1973, the Stonewall National Museum & Archives is a 501(c)(3) cultural organization whose mission is to promote understanding through the collection, preservation, and sharing of the proud culture and heritage of LGBTQ+ people and their significant role in American society.
Stonewall National Museum & Archives is one of the leading independent museums and archives in the country solely devoted to the acquisition, preservation, and exhibition of LGBTQ+ history. Now in its 49th year of operation, SNMA offers research materials, archival collections, exhibitions, and educational and social programming that are unmatched by any other institution in the nation. Stonewall is built on four programmatic pillars: the Paul Fasana and Robert S. Graham Archive, the Stonewall National Library and Stonewall National Library Special Collection, the Stonewall Museum & Galleries, and the Stonewall National Education Program (SNEP).
SNMA is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of 17 committed local, regional, and national LGBTQ+ leaders and is supported by an impressive assembly of major national thought and action leaders in the museum world and in the LGBTQ+ equality movement. The Board of Directors is committed to furthering the diversity and inclusivity of the LGBTQ+ community within SNMA collections, exhibits, and archives, as well as within its Board membership – consistent with the recommendations of the SNMA Anti-Racist Task Force of February 2021. SNMA's operating budget is currently supported by Board contributions, donors, state and local grants, special events, corporate sponsorships, foundation grants, and partnerships.
Stonewall National Museum & Archives (SNMA) aspires to be a voice recognized nationally as authoritative and influential in the collection, preservation, and accessibility of American LGBTQ culture and history. To do so, SNMA’s leadership understands their obligation to explore whether Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, and Pacific Islander communities — referred to in this document as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, or BIPOC — are equally served by SNMA’s “business-as-usual” perspectives, as well as whether its current institutional voice is fully inclusive of the diverse LGBTQ experience in the United States.
A bachelor’s degree is required for this position, as is at least five years of experience in an executive or senior leadership role within a nonprofit cultural organization, preferably with an annual budget consistent with that of SNMA. All applications must be accompanied by a cover letter and résumé. Cover letters should be responsive to the mission of Stonewall National Museum & Archives.
The salary for this role is $110,000 annually.
