From Lead For America's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Note: This is a full-time ACC AmeriCorps position with Southwestern Commission.
The American Connection Corps (ACC), an AmeriCorps program of Lead For America (LFA), is a service fellowship program aimed at helping communities build the digital connectivity necessary to expand opportunity and economic mobility, ranging from healthcare access to quality employment.
ACC Members serve with locally-rooted organizations, helping address the digital divide and strengthen access to opportunity. Through their service, they gain hands-on experience, build in-demand skills, and explore career pathways while making a tangible impact in their communities.
Today, the Southwestern Commission continues to connect member governments with critical funding and resources, adapting as traditional state and federal grants have given way to a broader mix of public and private loans, nonprofit grants, and philanthropic support. While technology has made communication and grant administration more efficient, the Commission remains focused on strengthening intergovernmental relationships through collaboration, professional facilitation, conflict resolution, and dispute mediation.
As Southwestern North Carolina experiences continued population growth and increasing demands on local services and infrastructure, the Commission serves as a vital regional partner in areas such as land use planning, economic and workforce development, services for an aging population, and other shared community priorities.
Position Overview
The Digital Navigator will support the Southwestern Commission's efforts to expand digital inclusion and strengthen digital literacy throughout Western North Carolina. This position will provide individualized technology assistance, support the delivery of educational workshops, and participate in community outreach to help older adults, underserved populations, and individuals seeking employment develop essential digital skills.
Through partnerships with senior centers, workforce development organizations, and other community agencies, and under appropriate staff guidance and supervision, the Digital Navigator will help individuals gain confidence in using technology, access essential online resources, and become more independent in an increasingly digital world. This role will contribute to building stronger, more connected communities by reducing barriers to technology and creating opportunities for lifelong learning.
We are currently recruiting Members to serve from December 7th, 2026 - August 13th, 2027. Members will serve full-time (approximately 40 hours per week), completing 1200 hours of service over the course of the term.
