MnMN is a relatively new 501c3 though we have existed through several iterations over the past decades. At this time, it has a Network Executive and is largely driven by volunteers committed to the mission. It is an exciting time to be part of MnMN as we work together for a more just and loving world. Thus, we are seeking a person who has some experience working with small nonprofit organizations where everyone needs to adapt to whatever needs to be done. There are a variety of communications and constituent relations management projects to attend to and we hope to find a Communication Specialist who is able to help out as needed and take initiative to suggest better or more effective ways of doing things. The Communications Specialist should be able to strike the balance of working independently without a lot of oversight while at the same time taking a collaborative approach in working with the Network Executive and volunteer leadership to determine direction and next steps.
