    Descrição

    High Value Health Care Campaign Associate, PIRG

    Washington, DC

    PIRG is an advocate for the public interest. We’re hiring a Campaign Associate to help build public support for our work to bring down health care costs and improve the quality of patient care in the United States.

    Key responsibilities

    • Build powerful coalitions: Reach out to like-minded organizations and affected constituency groups to demonstrate support for our campaign goals.
    • Earn traditional media and social media attention: Respond to media requests and write press releases and opinion pieces. Develop relationships with key health reporters. Build a following on social media for your campaign.
    • Lobby elected officials: Meet with decision makers - from city council members to state or federal legislators - to make the case for our campaign goals. When a critical vote is happening on your campaign, work to demonstrate the support you’ve been building on the ground to help line up the votes needed to win.
    • Research and write reports: Translate data relevant to the issue and repackage it into compact and easy-to-understand reports that support our policy proposals. Develop fact sheets and explainers to help influence public debate and earn media attention for our cause.
    • Identify and cultivate donors: Reach out to foundations and major donors and ask them to fund your campaign.
    • Recruit new people to your team: Help build your team by recruiting volunteers, interns and full-time staff.
    • Run a grassroots campaign office each summer: Run a campaign office for the summer to raise money to support our campaigns and build our organization and membership. Lead critical and timely grassroots campaigns to win key campaigns while honing your organizing and management skills. You may be assigned to a different office location for the summer and should be flexible to move.

    About PIRG

    PIRG is an advocate for the public interest. We speak out for the public and stand up to special interests on problems that affect the public's health, safety and wellbeing.

    How is it possible that, in the richest country the world has ever seen, dissatisfaction is rising and life expectancy is dropping? Is it just inequality? Or could it be that, in the name of producing and consuming more "stuff," we’ve lost sight, as a society, of what really matters -- including health, wellbeing, community, and a clean environment?

    PIRG’s mission is to spotlight these problems and find new solutions. Let's make more stuff reusable, repairable and recyclable, instead of single-use and designed for obsolescence. Let's choose conservation and renewable energy over fossil fuels. Let's value clean air and water over short-term profits and lower costs. Let's grow food that nurtures us as well as the land, with fewer pesticides, antibiotics and other quick fixes.

    Getting governments and corporations to make these choices is hard, and steps in the right direction are almost always small. But we have a 50-year track record of training and putting even our newest staff in a position to overcome powerful interests and win real results for the public interest.

    Our Mission and Values

    PIRG is part of The Public Interest Network, which operates and supports organizations committed to a shared vision of a better world and a strategic approach to social change. Visit https://publicinterestnetwork.org/core-values for things you should know about our network when you apply.

    PIRG is an equal opportunity employer.
