John,
Our community is changing, our needs are changing, and the challenges we face are changing. We are learning to adapt and finding new ways to face those challenges and fight the battles. The only way we can do that, though, is with quality data in hand. That is why we are looking for two full-time, detail-oriented people-persons who would enjoy speaking to countless people on the phone and via Zoom to run the U.S. Transgender Survey (USTS).
The USTS the largest survey ever devoted to the lives and experiences of trans people. With 28,000 respondents, the survey is quoted daily by news outlets throughout the US, and is the main source of data about trans people for the general public and the trans community itself. The data is well known not only for documenting trans experiences, but for documenting the disparities and higher levels of mistreatment faced by trans people of color.
These two staffers will work remotely for approximately one year to make the USTS the best it can be and ensure it captures the full breadth of our communities. We are looking for people who reflect all of the communities we serve—people who have a commitment to prioritizing justice for trans people, especially those who are most marginalized.
We made changes to our hiring process this year—we have a new diversity statement, an updated EEO policy, and a new online applicant portal to streamline the application process. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, the hiring process will take place over the phone and video.
- Apply now to be our US Trans Survey Project Manager if you want to manage the project timeline, oversee the website update, and work with the research team to build out the survey.
- Submit an application to be our US Trans Survey Outreach Coordinator if you are interested in being an integral part of developing, maintaining, and fostering good relationships with multiple organizations and high-profile community leaders, and developing a recruitment and outreach strategy to make the voices of all trans people heard.
Full details about all the listed positions, including salaries and our generous benefits package, and how to apply are available on our new jobs page.
If you think you might be a good fit, we encourage you to apply now!
If you know of someone who might be great in one of these roles, please share far and wide!
Thanks,
The Team at NCTE
