Organization Overview

The Detroit College Access Network (DCAN) is a collaborative network of local schools, organizations, and community partners working to make a college degree or credential a reality for all Detroit students.

Support staff communications and organizational announcements.
Assist with board communications and presentations.
Provide communications support for grant reports and funder updates.

Preferred Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Journalism, Public Relations, Marketing, or a related field.
5+ years of communications, storytelling, public relations, or nonprofit communications experience.
Exceptional writing, editing, and interviewing skills.
Strong understanding of social media strategy and digital engagement.
Experience capturing and elevating community-centered stories.
Familiarity with Canva, Mailchimp, WordPress, Constant Contact, or similar platforms.

Is comfortable working independently and managing multiple projects.
Brings creativity, initiative, and strong attention to detail.
