Organizing Data Associate

Reports to: Data Director of Civic TN & Action TN About Civic TN & Action TN Civic TN is a state-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit civic engagement “table” that is working towards a future where underrepresented communities have a greater voice and influence in shaping state policy and choosing leaders who affect their lives. CivicTN is part of the national State Voices network. Action TN is a 501(c)(4) state-based political alignment “table” that aims to coordinate a coalition of progressive organizations to build permanent advocacy and campaign infrastructure, advance progressive policies, and shift collective power in Tennessee in favor of progressive values and democracy. Action TN is part of the national America Votes network. Civic TN and Action TN serve as hubs where partners work together, particularly to leverage research, policy, organizing, voter engagement, and elections to achieve larger gains than any one group could on its own. The two tables coordinate to the extent permissible by law, including sharing data and operational staff, who serve to drive coordination among partners, increase state capacity, coordinate national and state strategies, make cutting-edge data and technology accessible, mobilize funding, and create a community of innovation. Civic TN and Action TN partners and staff share a vision for a just, equitable, and prosperous society that treats every single one of us with dignity and fairness; in which government reflects the race, class, and gender diversity of our communities and is a vehicle for addressing those challenges that need to be resolved collectively, and; in which vulnerable communities are able to exercise all of their human rights without fear, discrimination, or retaliation.
