Communications – Our Communications Team is made up of writers, editors, web assistants, social media specialists, and content managers who give a little of their precious time each week or month. We are always looking for additional members. Our team is in need of talented and dynamic folks willing to learn and able to commit to helping implement a cohesive communications presence.

Data helps us do good planning and make sure our households have the latest up-to-date information to make change.

Working closely with the Communications Manager, interns must learn and apply provided information (Cool Davis overview and campaign materials, strategic communications documents, and community based social marketing referenced), and improve materials based on constructive feedback.
Environmental Outreach Film and Video
The intern assists the Communications Manager in organizing video files, archiving, simple edits using tools such as Zoom, YouTube, Final Cut Pro; managing YouTube channel and Facebook Video (LiveCoolDavis); developing project proposals such as movie screening program, media campaigns; and production and publishing (possibly promoting) video assets.
