CUP is seeking a full-time Program Manager to work in our Community Education program area. Community Education programs are collaborations of CUP staff; visual thinkers, like artists and graphic designers; and people working in communities, like organizers and advocacy groups. The Program Manager will oversee a new program we will be developing over the next year and a half, and collaborate on other Community Education programs, including Making Policy Public (http://makingpolicypublic.net) and Envisioning Development Toolkit(http://envisioningdevelopment.net).

The new program, which the Program Manager will play a role in shaping, is an effort to support quick-turn around collaborations of CUP, designers, and advocates to produce timely tools for community organizing. The program is supported in its first two years by a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation. The Program Manager will report to CUP's ExecutiveDirector on this project and to the Program Director and Community Education Program Manager on other projects.
