Title: GenerationEngage San Jose Outreach Coordinator

Organization Mission: GenerationEngage is a nonpartisan youth-civic-engagement initiative that connects young Americans, especially those who have not attended a four-year university, to political leaders, to other civic organizations, and to meaningful debates about the future they will inherit.  GenerationEngage is built on three principles:

1.  Young people will get involved when given access to the political process;
2.  Our democracy should be a dialogue, not a monologue;
3.  The best investment we can make in the health and future of our democracy is in young leaders at the local level.

How We Do It:  GenerationEngage employs young social entrepreneurs who have a specific vision – and plan to achieve that vision – for the change they want to effect within a given community.  We use innovative technology to make it cost-effective and efficient for young people and politicians to communicate in the places young people already hang out.  We promote volunteerism, and make politics fun and social for young Americans.  GenGage iChats have been keynoted by Bill Clinton, Newt Gingrich, Al Gore, Colin Powell, and Barack Obama, among many others.

Position Description:  You would be responsible for developing and leading GenerationEngage’s community outreach model in San Jose.  This would include, at least: expanding GenerationEngage’s membership base and mobilizing young adults throughout the area; event organization; community network development; political outreach; media outreach; and fundraising responsibilities.
