The National Domestic Workers Alliance (NDWA) is the nation’s leading voice for respect, recognition and labor standards for nannies, housecleaners and home care workers. Through leadership development, strategic campaigns and alliance building, we are raising employment standards for the domestic workforce while building a powerful movement for social and global justice. The Alliance formed in 2007 at the US Social Forum. For the first several years of its existence, NDWA was solely a network of affiliate organizations, independent local domestic worker organizations. In 2016, NDWA launched a membership association to allow domestic workers around the country–including in locations where there is no local organization–to join NDWA, helping the domestic worker movement build the power necessary to successfully advance an ambitious agenda. NDWA is currently made up of 60 affiliate organizations, 4 chapters, 3 organizing projects, and a network of thousands of individual workers throughout the U.S.

NDWA seeks a Digital Campaigner to use social media platforms and online advocacy tools to build, grow and activate online communities to connect domestic workers to the organization and our campaigns, and to each other.
