The Coalition needs builders.

I. Grant Research & Intelligence

The grant pipeline is active and growing. We need people who can read a NOFO, identify fit, and produce a 1-page intelligence brief that tells us whether to pursue or pass. Background in nonprofit development, government contracting, or research is useful. Commitment: 4–8 hours per grant cycle. Location: remote.

II. Curriculum Development — McCartney Academy

The McCartney Academy curriculum is in active development. We need educators, curriculum designers, and subject-matter experts in STEM, humanities, civic education, and emerging technologies who understand lineage-centered pedagogy — or who are willing to learn it. The curriculum you help build will be taught to the first graduating class of a school designed to outlast everyone in this room. Commitment: project-based. Location: remote with Liberty City visits.

III. Cooperative Farm & Site Operations — FarmBlock

Phase I FarmBlock operations are underway in Liberty City. We need people with hands — soil preparation, site assessment, cooperative governance facilitation, and physical labor on cultivation plots. No agricultural experience required for labor roles. Certification in urban agriculture, cooperative business management, or soil science is a priority hire. Commitment: regular, in-person. Location: Liberty City, Miami.

IV. Data Analysis & Research

The BDI Sovereign Dataset is a living instrument. It requires regular verification, new data pulls from federal sources (HUD, USDA, CDC, Census, BJS), and methodological review by people who understand the difference between correlation and causation — and who know why that distinction matters when the data is used in litigation or policy testimony. Python, R, or SQL fluency required. Background in social science, public health, or economics preferred. Commitment: project-based. Location: remote.

V. Legal & Compliance

We operate at the intersection of nonprofit law, cooperative formation, federal grant compliance, and emerging technology governance. We need lawyers, paralegals, and compliance specialists who can review documents, advise on structure, and support grant applications that require certification. Florida nonprofit law, federal grant compliance (2 CFR Part 200), and cooperative law are the priority areas. Commitment: as-needed. Location: remote or Miami.

VI. Communications & Editorial

The Record is a publication. Publications require editors, fact-checkers, translators, and communications strategists who understand the difference between institutional voice and marketing copy. We do not produce content that hedges, softens, or performs humility we do not feel. If your instinct is precision — say exactly what is true, in the sharpest possible language — apply. Commitment: project-based. Location: remote.

Every application is read by a member of the Council — not filtered by an algorithm, not sorted by credential. We respond to every submission, personally, within five business days. If there is a fit, we schedule a working conversation. If there is not, we tell you honestly and point toward where your skills are better placed.

Volunteer contributions to E5 Enclave are credited in the record. Your name, your role, and your contribution period appear in the Coalition masthead. The work you do here is documented as institutional history.
