    Job Description

    HELP FIGHT POLICE BRUTALITY!

    Currently, not one US state complies with international law and standards on the use of lethal force used by police. Law enforcement officers sometimes kill or seriously injure people during arrests, and are often quick to use force in response to peaceful protests. All too often, those officers who use force unlawfully are not brought to justice.

    Amnesty International is a grassroots advocacy organization that helps fight human rights abuses worldwide. DVCanvass is a face-to-face fundraising agency working on behalf of Amnesty International. We go door-to-door connecting people in our communities with the charitable causes they care about. Together, we are campaigning for Congress to set a new standard for justice, policing, and safety in the United States.

    Apply today to join DVCanvass on behalf of Amnesty International as we redefine public safety with community-led solutions and resources that create the healthy, vibrant and safe neighborhoods we all deserve!
