Katz Amsterdam Foundation

Civic Engagement Program Director

Location – Flexible (Remote)

The Katz Amsterdam Foundation (KAF) is pleased to invite nominations and applications for the position of Civic Engagement Program Director. The Katz Amsterdam Foundation strives to be a catalyst for eliminating inequities, increasing access to opportunity, and improving outcomes for all. The Foundation is focused on striving to address inequities in three key issue areas: mental and behavioral health, civic engagement, and reproductive health. There have been long-standing racial disparities in each of these issue areas, and KAF utilizes a racial equity lens to help address those disparities.

The Katz Amsterdam Foundation works in partnership with communities to advance just and equitable approaches to accessing mental, behavioral, and reproductive healthcare and protecting our civil rights by increasing civic engagement and participation in our multiracial democracy. We do this work by addressing systemic injustice and racial and social disparities in mental health, reproductive health, and well-being. As a foundation, our priority is to support community-driven work that meaningfully improves the lives of all individuals and the social well-being of our communities.

The ideal candidate will bring a strong commitment to social justice and the mission of KAF, as well as experience and dedication to civic engagement and voting rights for communities of color. They will bring an innovative and strategic mindset as a natural connector who can engage and articulate impact.

The Katz Amsterdam Foundation believes that long-standing systemic inequities in our culture continue to harm already marginalized populations in our country, especially people of color. In order to begin to repair these injustices, we believe that these communities must be centered in the work we do. We strongly encourage applications from people of color.
