about outvote
OutVote is a national, youth-led nonprofit dedicated to mobilizing Gen Z LGBTQ+ voters through digital organizing, community power-building, and civic education. Founded in 2024, OutVote equips queer and trans youth with the tools, training, and peer networks needed to combat misinformation, build trust in democratic participation, and drive measurable civic engagement.
Current Context for OutVote’s Work
Gen Z is now one of the largest and most politically consequential generations in American history, and nearly one in three Gen Z voters identifies as LGBTQ+. Despite this, young queer people face unprecedented threats: discriminatory legislation, voter suppression, school censorship, digital misinformation, and political environments hostile to their wellbeing.
OutVote operates at this intersection. Our work aims to:
Empower young LGBTQ+ organizers in key geographies.
Combat digital misinformation by building online networks of trained youth organizers.
Strengthen civic participation through youth-led education, peer-to-peer organizing, and community engagement.
Shift national narratives about queer youth, democracy, and civic responsibility.
Programming Director
The Director of Programming will oversee the design, execution, and growth of all OutVote programming nationwide. This role will ensure seamless coordination across programs to advance OutVote’s mission of mobilizing Gen-Z LGBTQ+ youth through digital organizing, leadership development, and civic engagement.
The Director will lead day-to-day operations of these programs, cultivate partnerships with allied movement organizations, and represent OutVote at conferences, events, and strategic convenings across the country. Occasional travel will be required.

This is a high-ownership role designed for someone who understands how Gen Z communicates, organizes, and builds community online.
