Careers at Dakota Resource Council

Dakota Resource Council, North Dakota’s only home-grown, statewide, multi-issue grassroots organization, is looking for a full-time Communications Coordinator. DRC works with members to address issues with sound and successful community organizing efforts, empowering people to speak for themselves on issues related to their lives and livelihoods. Communications are a key part of DRC’s work and play a vital role in facilitating member engagement and retention, as well as supporting fast-moving issue campaigns. Current issue areas include impacts of chaotic oil and gas development in the Bakken oil fields and Standing Rock, clean energy, family-operated agriculture, and reconnecting constituencies to promote links between farms and culture. DRC has local affiliates in Bismarck-Standing Rock, Fort Berthold, Stark County, McKenzie County, Fargo, and Grand Forks. DRC organized in 1978 and is a founding member of the Western Organization of Resource Councils.
