NYC HOUSING AUTHORITY
Job description
The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA), the largest public housing authority in North America, was created in 1935 to provide decent, affordable housing for low- and moderate-income New Yorkers. NYCHA is home to roughly 1 in 16 New Yorkers across over 177,569 apartments within 335 housing developments through public housing, Section 8, and PACT/RAD programs. The Voter Engagement Department is a newly formed unit dedicated to strengthening resident engagement and democratic processes in NYCHA communities. The team provides centralized oversight, coordination, and on-the-ground engagement for two critical initiatives: • Tenant Association Elections: Ensuring fair, transparent, and consistent election processes for Tenant Association leadership across all NYCHA developments. The team works closely with residents, NYCHA staff, and third-party election monitors to implement standardized procedures, promote resident participation, and build leadership capacity. • Development Vote Program: Administering and managing the Development Vote process, which empowers residents to vote on which modernization strategy will be implemented at their development. The team oversees outreach, education, and voting logistics to ensure an informed and equitable process.

Serve as a point of contact for residents, partners, and stakeholders during elections and voting processes. 5. Track and maintain accurate records of election timelines, results, and resident feedback. 6. Represent the Voter Engagement Department and present voter engagement materials at tenant and community meetings. 7. Develop and maintain relationships with tenant leaders, key NYCHA leadership, and external stakeholders to ensure the success of civic engagement initiatives. 8.
