The California Reinvestment Coalition is seeking a passionate, talented Program Director to lead our programs team in building a more just and equitable economy.

Our small team has a large scale impact on banking and financial policies and practices - both across California and on the national stage.

We're working directly with immigrant families to make sure that everyone in our state has access to economic opportunity and financial security. And we're not shy about taking on the rich and powerful; our advocacy has resulted in groundbreaking new corporate practices and public policies that promote economic justice.

CRC builds an inclusive and fair economy that meets the needs of communities of color and low-income communities by ensuring that banks and other corporations invest and conduct business in our communities in a just and equitable manner. We envision a future in which people of color and low-income people live and participate fully and equally in financially health and stable communities without fear of displacement, and have the tools necessary to build household and community wealth.

CRC is the largest statewide community reinvestment coalition in the country, with over 300 member organizations across California that provide services to tens of thousands of low-income residents.
