Job description

Organization Description:ย 

The Contingent is a 501(c)(3) venture non-profit focused on sparking and holding initiatives to empower leaders and mobilize community for the common good. Since ourย inception, we haveย leveragedย the perspectives,ย skillsย and needs of people of color and low-income community members to challenge the status quo and positively transform our communities. We askย hard questions. We take risks. And we link arms with our neighbors, including business partners, faithย communities,ย and government agencies.ย
