3d•$71,000 - $75,000•Remote

About The Position

Justice Action Center (JAC) is a start-up social justice organization that combines the power of storytelling with impact litigation to bring justice to immigrant communities. We focus on fulfilling unmet needs historically overlooked in the nonprofit immigration space through creative communications and legal strategies that center the needs and experiences of our plaintiffs. JAC’s values include impact, creativity, and collaboration. JAC’s work includes Supreme Court campaigns, including the successful campaign to defend the Biden administration’s decision to end the cruel Remain in Mexico policy; authorship of a Litigation Tracker website and newsletter to keep abreast of anti-immigrant lawsuits filed by states; and active impact litigation throughout the country on behalf of immigrant communities. Reporting to the Digital Director, the Digital Design & Content Coordinator helps create and execute JAC’s digital content across social media, email, and web. This role is ideal for an early-career digital communicator who is already a strong visual creator: someone who can design polished, brand-aligned graphics quickly; edit short-form social video; draft strong online advocacy copy; and translate complex legal and policy developments into clear, accurate, dignified, and engaging digital content. The Coordinator will help turn approved messaging, legal updates, client stories, campaign priorities, and partner materials into content that advances JAC’s immigrant justice mission. The ideal candidate understands that digital content is not just informational or aesthetic — it is a tool for driving audience engagement and narrative change.
