About Common Cause Georgia 

Common Cause Georgia is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization working to build a stronger democracy through government accountability, voting rights and election administration reforms, and civic engagement.

This role is ideal for someone who wants hands-on experience in grassroots organizing, modern advocacy communications, and election protection operations.
