POSITION SUMMARY
This position will work closely with the Executive team, Media Consultants, and Policy Director to support the growth of language justice work. The Language Justice Organizer will be responsible for the coordination and implementation of internal and external strategies of multilingual interpretation, translation, and communication in alignment with WAISN’s vision, mission, organizing principles from the frame of language, power and its many intersections. Priority projects in 2025 include establishing infrastructure for assessing quality and political alignment of interpreters and translators, building regional Indigenous language interpreting capacity and councils, organizing community interpreting workshops, organizing a Language Justice advisory council, providing trainings for the WAISN team on language justice, deportation defense and access-related legislative initiatives, and representing WAISN in national Language Justice networks, and coordinating language access for ongoing campaigns and events such as our annual Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Day. This position will report to the Public Affairs Director when hired and, until then, to the Executive Directors.
All organizer positions within WAISN are essential to bringing people together in building collective power and driving systemic change. At the heart of this work is relationship-building – connecting through one-on-one conversations in-person and virtually, community-based listening sessions, and participating in community gatherings to foster trust and solidarity. These interpersonal and communal relationships form the backbone of collective action. Beyond immediate wins, all WAISN organizers will focus on long-term movement building, creating lasting change by empowering our communities through knowledge and resource sharing.
