Nonprofit criminal justice organization that strives to build just government institutions and safe communities free from racism and inequity in legal systems.
Who you are:
Vera’s Initiative to End Girls’ Incarceration (EGI) aims to zero out the incarceration of girls and gender-expansive youth in the country’s juvenile legal system by 2030. To get to zero girls incarcerated, we partner with government and community leaders to develop solutions based on community needs while advocating for broader policy changes at the state and local levels that advance the freedom and well-being of girls and gender-expansive youth. As we boost local prevention and diversion services, we’re also working to decriminalize status offenses (like running away) and explicitly prohibit incarceration for misdemeanors and technical violations of probation, to protect a young person’s safety or address their needs, and when there is no threat to public safety.
The Associate Director will work closely with the Initiative Director on the overall direction of EGI. This will include developing initiative plans and determining how best to engage and support the team to complete the work. The Associate Director will support program leadership by contributing to the overall direction and delivery of the initiative’s technical assistance, including by developing workplans and determining objective-oriented assignments. Will also help establish operating policies, procedural plans, programmatic priorities, methodologies, and standards. In collaboration with the director, will supervise teams delivering technical assistance to the initiatives’ partner sites and be involved in active efforts to develop contacts and proposals that lead to new or expanded initiative projects.
