About Us: African Communities Together is an organization of African immigrants fighting for civil rights, opportunity, and a better life for our families here in the U.S. and worldwide. ACT empowers African immigrants to integrate socially, get ahead economically, and engage civically. We develop our members as grassroots leaders who take action to make social change. Since its founding, ACT has supported thousands of African immigrants with direct services, trained hundreds of new leaders, and led successful policy campaigns at the federal, state, and local levels that have impacted hundreds of thousands of immigrants. ACT’s African immigrant membership comes from a diverse range of nationalities, cultures, and languages, is religiously diverse, and is predominantly working-class and low-income. We have offices in New York City and the Washington, D.C. metro area.
Position Description:
During the 2024 election cycle, ACT will launch a 9-week nonpartisan phone banking campaign to engage African voters. This campaign will focus on Get Out the Vote (GOTV) efforts, raise awareness about housing and community issues, and recruit members for our statewide chapter. We are seeking a dynamic and self-motivated phone banker who excels in phone-based communication with individuals of African descent. The ideal candidate will play a role in mobilizing the community in advance of the November general election.
Key responsibilities include:
Voter Engagement Training
- Engage and recruit African voters to become involved in ACT’s voter engagement and mobilization efforts.
- Attend team meetings to stay updated on campaign strategies, messaging, and best practices.
- Attend mandatory trainings to develop and enhance your phone banking skills, learn best practices and tools for the job, and effectively tell your personal story to build a narrative that emphasizes the role of Africans in voter turnout.
- Provide regular feedback regarding ACT’s target population and their top issues.
Phone Banking
- Make election outreach calls to African voters in Virginia for the November General Election.
- Engage in respectful conversations with voters and provide information regarding the November General Election.
- Maintain weekly phone bank and voter engagement goals.
- Provide information regarding voter readiness, ballot access, ways to vote, rides to the polls, and other important voter information.
Voter Education
- Provide nonpartisan information on what’s on the upcoming ballot, voting deadlines and requirements to help prepare voters for the upcoming election.
- Encourage eligible voters to verify their voter information and participate in either of the (3) voting options: early in-person voting, vote by mail, or on Election Day.
Data Collection
- Maintain correct information for each voter conversation.
- Enter detailed information and responses using the Voter Activation Network [VAN / MiniVAN].
- Adequately document member signup, pledge to vote commitments and ride to the poll's requests.
Qualifications:
- Strong social and communication skills.
- Must be reliable and timely throughout the duration of the campaign.
- Cultural competence and significant experience with African and African immigrant communities or within the social justice sector.
- Strong attention to detail and accuracy in data entry.
- Comfortable using a script and speaking on the phone for an extended period.
- Ability to work remotely with a reliable internet connection.
- Previous phone banking or canvassing experience preferred, but not required.
- Fluency in Amharic, Arabic, French, or other African languages is a plus.
Equal Opportunity Employer
ACT is an affirmative action employer and strongly supports the social goals of affirmative action. We therefore make special efforts to recruit individuals from groups that are historically under-represented in professional environments, or that suffer from broader societal discrimination.
