Budgets are moral documents that reflect a state’s values and priorities. In Louisiana, public officials have often prioritized locking people in jail or prison over making the types of investments that could keep them from ending up there in the first place.
Invest in Louisiana (Invest) is seeking a Policy Analyst to research, analyze and advocate on state policies that affect the state’s criminal legal system. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with strong research, writing and interpersonal communications skills, and a deep interest in understanding the costs and consequences of mass incarceration. The successful candidate will work to promote social, racial and economic equity by conducting research, analyzing data, writing reports and blogs, and representing the organization in public forums.
Invest is an independent, 501c(3) nonprofit research and advocacy organization that monitors and reports on policies that affect low- to moderate-income Louisianans. We work collaboratively with communities and partner organizations to inform policy debates across a wide range of areas – including state budget, revenue, social and economic issues – with an eye to reducing poverty, promoting racial equity and widespread economic prosperity that allows all citizens to reach their highest potential.
