About the Role

As a Chapter Leader, you’ll build and lead a local team for animals—organizing events that create new vegans and animal advocates in your community. From eye-opening film screenings to compelling food samplings to community outreach, you’ll be at the forefront of Animal Outlook’s grassroots revolution.

What It Takes

Time: 2-4 hours weekly (more during campaign peaks)
Location: Remote position with monthly virtual sessions with our Director of Outreach and Engagement
Qualities: Determination, leadership, and passion for animal justice

Why Animal Outlook?

We’re not like other organizations. As a national powerhouse featured in ABC News, CNN, and The New York Times, we strategically challenge animal agriculture through:

  • Groundbreaking undercover investigations that expose the truth
  • Legal advocacy that holds the industry accountable
  • Corporate campaigns that force systemic change
  • Public education that empowers others to choose compassion by leaving animals off their plate

Our chapters are built on proven behavior change science—because we’re not interested in making noise. We’re here to create measurable impact for animals.
