Kino Border Initiative is a bi-national, inclusive Catholic organization inspired by the spirituality of the Jesuits and Missionaries of the Eucharist. We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Human Rights Advocacy Specialist to join our team in the US-Mexico border region.

The Human Rights Advocacy Specialist will support the Director of Education and Advocacy in implementing the advocacy strategy, leveraging the resources and networks of KBI to promote humane and just migration policy. This includes:

  • Supporting advocacy staff with documenting abuses, both in the US and Mexico, training others to document abuses, and other relevant accountability and monitoring projects.

  • Maintaining statistics, databases, and processes conducive to effective advocacy work.
  • Cultivating strategic partnerships with other immigrant advocacy organizations to identify opportunities for KBI's compelling stories and data to inform and support the broader advocacy movement.

The Human Rights Advocacy Specialist will also:

  • Implement the strategic plan for advocacy efforts in the US and Mexico that is attentive to the realities experienced by the migrants that KBI accompanies.
  • Support building and maintaining connections with Congressional offices to inform them and persuade them to champion policies that promote the dignity of migrants.

Additionally, the Human Rights Advocacy Specialist will:

  • Maintain a relevant and up-to-date presentation about the immigration context in the US and support the education team with presentations for groups visiting the KBI.
  • Plan, implement, and update advocacy trainings for volunteers and other leaders at KBI partner institutions.

The ideal candidate will have at least two years of experience in ministry, education, or non-profit social services, a deep personal commitment to accompaniment of migrants, and the ability to reflect deeply and question dominant narratives. They will also have excellent written and oral communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to work collaboratively in a binational team environment.

The salary for this position is $50,000-$55,000 per year, commensurate with experience. Benefits include employer-paid health insurance, employer matching contributions to a 403(b) retirement plan, 2 weeks paid vacation, 13 days of annual sick leave, many Federal and Catholic holidays, and six weeks paid family leave.

KBI values a diverse workforce and an inclusive culture - people of color, women, individuals with disabilities, immigrants, and people from other underrepresented communities are strongly encouraged to apply for this position.
