Graphic Design Associate

The Position

The National Women’s Law Center (NWLC) seeks a Graphic Design Associate to deliver our brand and advocacy work to the public. In today’s every-changing media environment, visual design is a key element of educating audiences about our work, moving the public and our donors to action, and communicating the felt impact of NWLC’s law, policy, and culture-change efforts.

This is a full-time, exempt role of 37.5 hours per week.

The Organization

The National Women’s Law Center (NWLC) fights for gender justice — in the courts, in public policy, and in our society — working across the issues that are central to the lives of women and girls.

We use the law in all its forms to change culture and drive solutions to the gender inequity that shapes our society and to break down the barriers that harm all of us — especially women of color, LGBTQIA+ people, and low-income women and families.

For more than 50 years, we have been on the leading edge of every major legal and policy victory for women, and we need you with us to continue this fight. Find out more at NWLC.org.
