Job description

Job Description:
Who We Are:
The Center for Responsible Lending (CRL) is a nonprofit, non-partisan organization working to ensure a fair, inclusive financial marketplace that creates opportunities for all. Through research, legal analysis, policy development, and state and national advocacy engagement, CRL fights for economic equity for underserved communities-particularly Black and brown communities and low-to-middle income families. CRL's staff, allies, and funders reflect a collective commitment to eliminating systemic injustice in America's financial services.
CRL provides a strong voice on both the state and national levels for these families to expand family wealth and financial stability through sustainable homeownership, affordable higher education, and support for small businesses, and protect their financial stability by preventing abusive products that trap families in debt and strip away their income, by ending payday lending and other predatory high-cost lending, exorbitant bank fees, and abusive debt collection practices. CRL is an affiliate of Self-Help, a community development lender founded in 1980.
We are seeking a Director of Federal Policy for our Washington, DC team!
