Job Description

Job Title: Climate Justice Community Organizer Location: Central Illinois (downstate) Position:Full-time Salary: $45,000 - $65,000 depending on organizing experience. Plus full health and dental insurance. Home office stipend. Generous paid time-off. At Illinois People’s Action (IPA) , we know real change happens when everyday people join forces. We’re here to make sure downstate Illinois has a say in what matters—whether it’s social, racial, economic, or environmental justice. We believe regular folks, working together, can stand up to big corporations and special interests so our communities get a fair shake. We want where we live to be more just, more humane, and truly democratic. That’s why we organize—because when people connect and take action, we win real results. As a Community Organizer , you’ll talk one-on-one with everyday people, listen to what matters to them, and help train grassroots and faith leaders to step up and lead the fight for change, with a focus on climate and environmental justice. You’ll help bring people into the organization, build power together, and turn that energy into action. What You’ll Do Get out there—meet and build relationships with grassroots and faith leaders in both urban and rural downstate Illinois. Support IPA efforts for climate justice, always keeping racial equity front and center. Train local leaders on how to organize and make their voices heard. Team up with others on our regional environmental justice campaigns. Work together with partners across Illinois and nationwide. Join regular staff meetings and check-ins. Pitch in on basic admin—like reports and timesheets—when needed. We’re looking for someone who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and jump in. You’ll work with your supervisor and team to come up with smart strategies and tactics to make change happen. You’ll need to live in central or downstate Illinois (we’re based in Bloomington and organize across the region) and work from home when you’re not out in the field. Some travel around central Illinois and sometimes to Chicago or the Capitol in Springfield. Ready to help make a difference? Join us! Salary: Range depending on organizing experience.
