Save to Favorites

Local, state, and national governments have a great deal of influence on the environment and environmental policy. Unfortunately, it is often difficult for nonprofits--especially small nonprofits--to keep tabs on all relevant activity. The Government Relations Coordinaor's job will be to track the environmental activities of one or more governing or administrative agencies and provide reports of both actions and opportunities to provide input.

Duties:

• Select one or more agencies to review
• Prepare weekly report on activities, which might include relevant upcoming agenda items or environmental groups who have expressed an interest in the issue.
• Attend meetings as schedule allows
• Draft issue-specific fact sheets for publication on website and distribution through newsletter
• Contact and interview representatives of member organizations
• Research environmental issues
