Accessible content
Readable structure, descriptive links, captions, alt text and inclusive design habits.
Mission across every screen
Digital communications jobs connect nonprofit missions with audiences through websites, email, social media, content, analytics and online community engagement.
The channel ecosystem
Strong digital communicators design a clear path from audience need to useful action. The exact tools change, but the work consistently combines content, experience, distribution and learning.
Candidate toolkit
Platform fluency matters, but durable value comes from understanding audiences, choosing the right channel and improving the experience.
Readable structure, descriptive links, captions, alt text and inclusive design habits.
Clear messages, careful sourcing and formats matched to audience context.
Comfort with content systems, email tools, analytics and responsible testing.
Thoughtful moderation, listening and response practices.
Start with the decision the organization needs to make. Then choose a small group of signals that show whether people found, understood or acted on the message.
Name the audiences, owned channels, publishing volume, technology access and the outcomes the role should influence. Avoid asking one person to be a full design, development, media and marketing department without matching resources.
