We’re Recruiting!

Our Communications Team is looking for a social media savvy community member to take over our social media scheduling + engagement. Responsibilities will include:

• Event Promotion: Coming up with new, creative ways to promote events and maximize attendance on social

• Coordinating Video Content: Create weekly Instagram Reels + video content for TikTok

• Social Media Interaction: Responding to DMs on Instagram, and acquiring the answers if needed, within 24 hours of receipt

• Creating Systems: Creating a system to organize and solicit photo/video content from community members

The role will include a weekly standing working meeting with our executive director at a mutually agreed upon time, as well as 3-4 hours of remote work each week, set at the intern’s discretion, plus the ability to attend at least one event in-person each week for live event coverage as needed. We’re looking for a time commitment of about 5 hours each week. Download the full description HERE.

Currently, this is a five month volunteer position, with the hope that in 2025, we can hire this individual part time. As an incentive, we are offering a $400/month stipend for this internship! This position is open until filled, and applications will be accepted on a rolling basis. Ideally, we would love to have this position filled by mid June 2024, for a five-month term beginning on July 1, 2024, with an option to renew for the 2025 program year. 

To apply, email lauren@centerdc.org with your resume and statement of interest.

Center DC has a dedicated group of specialized volunteers who serve on our accountability team. When an issue arrises between community members, these professionals support our safe(r) space process, with the goal of addressing harm and conflict, holding people accountable to one another, and keeping folks in community when at all possible. This team also plans proactive circles and gatherings to build community and address larger issues that emerge and impact our ability to be in ‘right relationship’ with one another.

We are currently looking to onboard 3-4 new members who have experience in:

• mental health

• victims advocacy

• mediation + conflict resolution

• restorative justice facilitation

Folks who are the best fit for this role are community-adjacent (i.e. not deeply involved and super socially connected within the Center DC ecosystem). Not knowing everyone in community is a benefit here! If you attend multiple events each week, you’re likely too close to the community to serve in this way!

You can view the full job description HERE. This is a one year commitment, with the option to renew. Interested candidates should submit a resume and statement of interest to saferspace@centerdc.org with “Joining the Safe(r)Space Team” as the subject line. Applications will be reviewed and an interview will be scheduled for those advancing forward, where we’ll review our process and answer questions. We hope to onboard 3-4 new members this year, inshaAllah!
