This position will lead the day-to-day management of UltraViolet’s external communications and the systems that support it.

UltraViolet is a multi-issue organization because the discrimination that women face is not singular in nature.

Every day, we walk through the world and are forced to endure a variety of sexist policies, misogynistic attitudes, and violent behaviors that are often dismissed.

We see this discrimination in the pink taxes that force us to pay more for everything from razors to reproductive health services; we see it in the gender pay gaps that become gender wealth gaps; we see it in the underrepresentation of women in leadership positions; and we see it in the ways that corporations profit from sexist hate speech and harassment online.

The UltraViolet community is multi-racial, multi-generational, and gender-diverse because we are not monolithic.

What unites us is our shared belief that an inclusive, women-led movement, rooted in anti-racist feminist principles that centers the most marginalized among us, has the power to rewrite the written and unwritten rules of patriarchy.
