Volunteer Animal Outlook Chapter Leader

Become a Chapter Leader: Lead the Movement in Your Community

Ready to transform your passion into powerful action for animals? Animal Outlook is seeking thoughtful, dedicated advocates to become Chapter Leaders across the United States. This isn’t just volunteering—it’s leading a movement that’s challenging an abusive system and creating lasting change for animals.

Your Mission

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.
