United States of Care

Date Posted: 10/27/2026

United States of Care (USofCare) is a non-partisan non-profit organization on a mission to ensure that everyone has access to quality, affordable health care regardless of health status, social need, or income. We champion fair and commonsense policy changes to meet people’s urgent needs: the certainty that their health care will be affordable, that their coverage will be dependable and there when they need it, that their health care is personalized, and that the system is easy to understand and navigate.

In order to achieve our people-centered mission, USofCare has developed highly intentional organizational values and we are committed to building a diverse team at all levels of our organization, cultivating an inclusive culture, and engaging with people who bring different perspectives and lived experiences to our efforts. Our values are how we work internally and externally, what we hold up and celebrate, and what we are constantly striving for and aspiring to be as an organization. View our values at unitedstatesofcare.org/who-we-are.

In building our team, at every level we value and prioritize inclusion and diverse perspectives. Seeking unity over uniformity, we pay attention to the diverse interests, abilities, needs, and backgrounds of every employee and strive to create an environment where everyone is heard and feels that they belong. We strongly encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds and communities to apply to join our growing team.

Position Overview and Responsibilities

United States of Care is seeking a Digital Communications Manager to join our team of passionate, adaptable, accountable, innovative problem-solvers dedicated to making our health care system better for all people.

This role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution. Reporting to the Senior Manager of Communications, the Digital Communications Manager owns USofCare’s digital presence across the website, social media, and email channels and plays an active role in shaping digital strategy to amplify the organization’s public opinion research, policy work, and advocacy efforts. If you’re someone who can turn a complex policy report into a compelling LinkedIn post, keep a complex website rebuild on schedule, and still have bandwidth to troubleshoot a Mailchimp formatting issue before it goes out the door, this role was made for you.

On a given week, you might be drafting the biweekly external newsletter, coordinating with our designer on social assets for a new research release, publishing landing page content for an advocacy campaign, and pulling a Google Analytics report to see what’s actually moving the needle. You’ll manage USofCare’s presence on LinkedIn, X, and Bluesky, creating platform-specific content and building out social toolkits for major research, advocacy, and campaign initiatives, and on an ad hoc basis, you’ll draft thought leadership content for the CEO’s LinkedIn that translates organizational perspective into timely, accessible posts.

The website side of this role is substantive. You’ll manage USofCare’s primary site and digital microsites in WordPress and Ceros, maintain site architecture and content discoverability, apply SEO best practices (including for AI-driven search), and make light HTML and CSS updates as needed. When the organization undertakes a website rebuild, you’ll project manage that process with an external agency, coordinating timelines, internal reviews, and deliverables to keep milestones on track.

You’ll also project manage paid digital campaign workstreams and Google Ad Grant initiatives in collaboration with external agency partners, and you’ll bring your own recommendations for how USofCare can use paid digital more strategically to reach key audiences and advance advocacy goals. The Communications team is small and collaborative, and this role carries real ownership, you’ll work independently while staying tightly connected to the team’s broader priorities.

This role provides light administrative support to the Communications team including scheduling meetings, note-taking, expense tracking, and managing subscriptions and platform access.

Qualifications

To be successful in this role, you must have a strong commitment to ensuring everyone has access to quality, affordable health care, and have a dedication to operating in a diverse, bipartisan, learning atmosphere that explores multiple policy solutions to achieve our mission. You are willing to respect different points of view, and are committed to applying an equity lens and prioritizing diversity, equity, and inclusion principles in all of your work.

The ideal candidate is a strong writer, a sharp digital strategist, and an organized project manager who can hold multiple workstreams at once without letting things slip. You’re comfortable with ambiguity, energized by a fast-paced environment, and skilled at translating complex ideas into clear, compelling content for a range of audiences.

Successful candidates will bring:

• Four or more years of experience in digital communications, including managing websites, social media, and email marketing for a nonprofit, advocacy, policy, or other mission-driven organization;

• Hands-on proficiency with WordPress, Google Analytics, Mailchimp, and SEO best practices, plus working knowledge of HTML and CSS; experience with Ceros, Google Ad Grants, or paid digital campaigns is a plus;

• Demonstrated success managing organizational social media accounts, creating platform-specific content, building audience engagement, and using analytics to refine strategy, with familiarity across LinkedIn, X, and Bluesky, and experience writing in an executive’s voice for thought leadership content;

• Strong writing and editing skills, with the ability to translate complex policy topics into clear, engaging content across platforms and audiences;

• Proven project management skills, including coordinating with external agencies, designers, and internal stakeholders to keep multiple workstreams on schedule.

Work at United States of Care

USofCare is committed to equity in our compensation policy. The salary range for this position is $70,000 – $75,000 annually, depending on experience and location.

United States of Care offers a comprehensive benefits package including phone and internet stipends, medical, dental, vision, life, and long-term disability insurance, and a 403(b) retirement plan with a 5% employer match. USofCare’s paid time off includes accrued sick time, an unlimited vacation policy, paid parental and medical leave, and office closures throughout the year for holidays and breaks.

North Carolina Coalition for Alternatives to the Death Penalty (NCCADP)

Date Posted: 10/21/2026

The North Carolina Coalition for Alternatives to the Death Penalty (NCCADP) includes 28 partner organizations and thousands of individuals committed to ending North Carolina’s death penalty. We envision a North Carolina free from state killing where justice is rooted in racial equity, healing, and addressing harm without perpetuating it. We work with and educate lawmakers, communities, and the public about the racist, unjust and ineffectual death penalty. We advocate for equitable alternatives, rooted in restorative justice, that promote healing and increase public health and safety. We center the voices of people most proximate to the death penalty: homicide survivor family members (including executions) and individuals living on or exonerated from death row and their families. We believe their leadership and stories are key to transforming our system.

NCCADP has experienced exciting growth and success since 2024 when Gov. Roy Cooper commuted 15 death sentences at the conclusion of a two-year campaign led by the organization. North Carolina has not executed anyone in more than 20 years, yet some lawmakers are eager to resume, even in the midst of failed executions in other states. We seek a strong, creative leader and team player to build on this momentum at a critical time for our movement. The ideal candidate will have a passion for criminal justice reform, exceptional communications skills, and at least three years of relevant experience.

NCCADP strongly encourages applications from people who have direct experience with the carceral state in North Carolina, including people who are formerly incarcerated themselves or those who have incarcerated loved ones. We also encourage applications from people who have survived violence, as well as those who have lost loved ones to violence, including homicide and execution. NCCADP strives to create a team that reflects our commitment to racial justice and equity; and therefore, we especially seek applications from Black and Brown people, people with disabilities, and people who identify as LGBTQ.

The Director of Communications must live in North Carolina and will work remotely, with some travel for in-person events and meetings across the state as required.

Key Responsibilities

1. Direct and implement NCCADP’s communications:

• Serve as primary writer and content strategist across NCCADP’s communication platforms including social media, email, and website.

• Create strategic communications such as petitions, targeted messages, and calls to action.

• Liaise with partner organization communications staff to facilitate sharing events and information and deepen engagement from their memberships.

• Develop and implement a digital organizing strategy in collaboration with staff and coalition partners.

• Maintain and update NCCADP’s WordPress website.

• Draft and distribute press releases and media advisories; maintain and expand press lists; track and share relevant media coverage.

• Design digital and print communications materials, including graphics, event flyers, reports, and campaign toolkits.

2. Develop and maintain NCCADP’s databases, including:

• Donors and donor acknowledgement.

• Media outlets.

• Volunteers, coalition members, and partners.

3. Support NCCADP events and programs:

• Collaborate with staff and volunteers on planning and promotion of in-person and virtual events.

• Represent NCCADP at community events and coalition gatherings.

4. Serve as an active and collaborative member of a small, high-functioning team:

• Take initiative to strengthen organizational systems and offer support across program areas when needed.

• Contribute to long-term strategic planning, infrastructure development, and sustainability planning.

• May include onboarding and supervising interns and volunteers supporting communications, research, and outreach initiatives as needed.

Qualifications and Experience

• Significant previous experience developing and executing communications strategies and ability to shape narratives that drive social change including strong storytelling, research, writing, and editing skills. Preferably with an advocacy or social justice-oriented organization.

• Previous experience managing a CRM and using digital organizing strategies, including social media platforms.

• Personal commitment to NCCADP’s mission to end the death penalty and to NCCADP’s core values of racial justice, centering the voices of people most proximate to the death penalty, and restorative justice.

• Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple tasks and projects simultaneously.

• Self-motivated and ability to meet deadlines.

• Exceptional interpersonal skills with the ability to work collaboratively with staff, volunteers, and interns.

• Proficient with computer and office software, social media, and basic graphic design.

• Ability to photograph or video events.

• Familiarity with the death penalty landscape, the criminal legal system, the decarceration movement, and North Carolina political dynamics is a plus.

Hours and compensation: This is a remote, full-time position (37.5 hrs/wk) with traditional daytime hours and occasional evening or weekend hours. It will also require occasional in-person meetings and events, sometimes in different areas of the state. We highly value a “can-do” attitude, and we also strive to support our staff in their work-life balance through our benefits package and positive, passionate work environment.

• Annual salary is $64,000.

• 15 paid holidays in addition to a total of 22 days combined paid time off and health care leave.

• Health care stipend and retirement benefit (total $11,120 annually) and reimbursement for travel and some home-office expenses.

• Salary and benefits with pro-rated paid leave will commence upon hire. The position also includes a three-month probationary period.
