Regional Campaigns Director

Planned Parenthood is the nation’s leading provider and advocate of high-quality, affordable sexual and reproductive health care for all people, as well as the nation’s largest provider of sex education. With more than 600 health centers across the country, Planned Parenthood organizations serve all patients with care and compassion, with respect, and without judgment, striving to create equitable access to health care. Through health centers, programs in schools and communities, and online resources, Planned Parenthood is a trusted source of reliable education and information that allows people to make informed health decisions. We do all this because we care passionately about helping people lead healthier lives.
Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that supports the independently incorporated Planned Parenthood affiliates operating health centers across the U.S. Planned Parenthood Action Fund is an independent, nonpartisan, not-for-profit membership organization formed as the advocacy and political arm of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. The Action Fund engages in educational, advocacy, and electoral activity, including grassroots organizing, legislative advocacy, and voter education. Planned Parenthood values the experience of employees, and our cultural ethos is “In This Together” which aims to support a workplace culture that centers on belonging, learning, and individual recognition.
We are seeking a Regional Campaigns Director (RCD) who will work in collaboration with state and local Planned Parenthood affiliates and advocacy and political organizations (collectively, “local PP organizations”) to build the Planned Parenthood movement and grassroots strength in order to help increase healthcare access for all people. This job reports to the Senior Director of Campaign Strategy in the Campaigns department of PPFA and the Action Fund. The Campaigns department provides support to local PP organizations, cross-divisional campaign alignment and implementation, and internal coordination in building long term organizing power to protect and expand access to sexual and reproductive health care (SRH) and ensure that those most impacted by policy decisions have a say in those decisions.
Purpose:The Regional Campaign Director (RCD) works with our colleagues at local PP organizations to advance a shared agenda and run campaigns to achieve policy and advocacy goals. On behalf of the Action Fund and/or the independent expenditure committee Planned Parenthood Votes (PP Votes), the RCD adapts campaign models for specific state and local PP advocacy and political organizations to build political power and win electoral campaigns. They work with internal and external partners, and collaborate with colleagues nationally as well as local PP organizations.
The RCD develops and optimizes campaign plans in a portfolio of states. Campaigns within the RCD’s designated region combat attacks on Planned Parenthood from state legislatures and opposition at the national level while working to expand and build political power. Working across departments within national office leadership, the RCD builds relationships, identifies strategic opportunities for growth and advocacy, and serves as a high-level strategic consultant and expert for issue, advocacy, and political organizing to local PP organizations within their region. As PPFA and the Action Fund pursue a targeted campaign to defeat federal attacks on sexual and reproductive health and rights, the RCD coordinates joint responses with Planned Parenthood affiliates. 
Our overarching goal is to create the conditions for change in states where access to care is under threat, expand or fortify care in access states, and use the power of supportive allies and the 19 million Planned Parenthood supporters to defend access to sexual and reproductive health care nationally.
