Dave,

I hope you will consider this message for the IP list serve.

This fall the ACLU will be opening a new office in Silicon Valley. The decision to open a regional office of the ACLU of Northern California in the San Jose/Silicon Valley recognizes that the Valley is home to many of the most important technology companies and institutions in the nation. It has its own media market, political networks and coalition structures, and six strategically important members of Congress.

The office will be staffed by a full-time public policy advocate, a full time organizer, and a full time support person. The public policy advocate will be the first to be hired. It will be the role of the public policy advocate to bring a civil liberties perspective to decisions being made in both the private and the public sectors regarding technology and privacy. The public policy advocate will work closely with the legal staff of our San Francisco office as well as their communications and field departments. He or she will also have significant interaction with our Sacramento legislative office and with the national ACLU's Technology and Liberty Project.

If there are list members who are interested in this position or know someone who might be, a complete job description and application information is available at http://www.aclunc.org/techliberties_job.html.


Thanks,

Barry Steinhardt
