ABOUT THE POSITION

The Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights (RFKHR) is seeking applications and nominations for its inaugural Vice President, U.S. Based Advocacy & Litigation. Established in 1968, RFKHR is a visionary, high- impact advocacy nonprofit, pursuing strategic litigation on key human rights issues in the United States and abroad. The organization works alongside local activists to ensure lasting positive change in governments and corporations. The team at RFKHR includes leading attorneys, advocates, entrepreneurs, and writers united by a commitment to social justice. In addition to strategic litigation work, RFKHR educates millions of students in human rights advocacy.

At a critical moment in time for the world, RFKHR is seeking a dynamic and visionary Vice President of Advocacy and Litigation to further develop and scale the organization’s advocacy efforts to advance racial and economic justice and dismantle systems of mass criminalization and incarceration (criminal legal & immigration) in solidarity with frontline movements for social change across the United States. At an important inflection point for the organization, the incoming Vice President will lead the integration of RFKHR strategic framework and support and collaborate with internal stakeholders to drive the mission and direction of the U.S. based advocacy and litigation team. Additionally, the Vice President will play a role in the broader organization’s continued efforts towards long term sustained transformational change for the U.S. based justice system.
