Help us collect signatures for an important ballot initiative!

Petitioners will canvass in busy public areas, and engage voters in one-on-one conversations, in order to gather signatures for this important ballot initiative. Canvassing is all about connecting with people face-to-face, having meaningful conversations, and inspiring them to take action on important issues. We spend our days outdoors, in public spaces to engage with community members. 

This role is a great opportunity to gain experience in the following areas: Leadership, Communication & Advocacy, Community Outreach & Engagement, Campaign Work, Public Policy, and Social Enterprise.

Get paid well! Petition Circulator positions start at $25/hour . Leadership positions start at $27/hour. We offer overtime pay, paid training, sick pay, and bonuses for friend referrals. 

Apply here:

Locations: We’ll be canvassing across New York City . We expect staff to be able to travel between a couple burroughs to find canvassing locations. 

We are committed to equity, inclusion, and anti-racism. We are an equal opportunity employer and we strongly encourage Black, indigenous, people of color, women, people with previous felony convictions, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and others who identify with underrepresented groups to apply.
