Context: At the Sierra Club, we believe in the power of interdependence. Together, we remain committed to the fight for a healthy climate built on a foundation of environmental, racial, economic, and gender justice – a future where all people benefit from a healthy, thriving planet and a direct connection to nature. As the climate crisis and deeply entrenched systemic racism all fuel injustice, we will continue to fight for a bold, transformational agenda that recognizes the interconnectedness between our planet, our humanity, and our future. By recognizing that our destinies are tied, we continue to name that all things are fundamentally connected, and the overlap between ecology, race, gender, and representative government will move to either advance our collective humanity or to oppress it. Sierra Club has close to 800 staff across the country and a network of 64 local chapters that are led and fueled by thousands of volunteers. We are also proud to be a unionized employer, with three labor unions representing more than half of our employees.
Scope: Sierra Club Florida works at the local, regional, and state level – using a lens of equity and justice – to both stop the outdated, toxic, and discriminatory practice of pre-harvest burning sugar cane fields in and around the Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA); and restore the Greater Everglades ecosystem. The organizer will work with other staff and volunteers to support grassroots power-building in the Glades through grassroots organizing, advocacy, and education. The Glades Community Organizer will collaborate with staff, volunteer leaders, and coalition partners to set strategic priorities and lead on the grassroots organizing aspects of those priorities in the Glades.
This organizer will be responsible for planning, coordinating, and implementing strategic grassroots engagement, education, and mobilization in alignment with the strategic priorities in the state. They will communicate priorities and benchmarks, provide leadership, and represent the Sierra Club to media, community leaders, coalitions, allies, and the public. They will ensure that the campaign engages Sierra Club’s members and supporters, and builds powerful partnerships that are oriented toward a shared vision of climate and environmental justice.
