Full-Time Non-Exempt Bklyn/SI, NY, US

Salary Range: $51,859.00 To 61,859.00 Annually- dependent on relevant experience (NOTE: The salary will be higher in FY 23 due to a  8.7% COLA raise that will be added for 1/1/23.)

Make the Road New York builds the power of Latino and working class communities to achieve dignity and justice through organizing, policy innovation, transformative education, and survival services. Make the Road NY operates neighborhood-based community centers in Bushwick, Brooklyn; Jackson Heights, Queens; Port Richmond, Staten Island, Brentwood, Long Island and White Plains, Westchester. With a membership of more than 24,000 low-income New Yorkers, Make the Road tackles the critical issues facing our community: workplace justice, tenants’ rights, immigrant rights, language-access, LGBTQ justice, public education, health care access, and immigration reform.
