Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Atlanta is the first nonprofit legal advocacy organization dedicated to protecting the civil rights of Asian American, and Pacific Islander (AAPI) and Arab, Middle Eastern, Muslim, and South Asian (AMEMSA) communities in Georgia and the Southeast. Their work includes nonpartisan voter mobilization, immigration legal services, anti-detention and deportation organizing, and civil rights defense. In the context of Georgia’s rapidly growing immigrant population and escalating attacks on immigrants, the Policy Advocacy team is prioritizing political education and expanding and prioritizing its reach through narrative research. The Senior Policy Associate will be tasked with adding strategic capacity to the team’s goal of creating multiple, year-round opportunities for community engagement in local, state, and federal policy impacting AAPI and AMEMSA immigrants across three key areas: political education curriculum design, narrative research, and policy research/campaign development.
