Developer | RH Reality Check (A Project of the United Nations Foundation)

RHRealityCheck.org, an award-winning and growing online publication and community for progressive reproductive health and rights news and commentary, is seeking an experienced free lance Drupal developer to assist with two big development projects for 25-30 hours a week over the next nine months. Our small team telecommutes and is based all over the country. I, Brady Swenson, the project's New Media Director, am based in Lawrence, KS and so am seeking someone in the Lawrence / Kansas City area so that we may work together in person from time to time. This is not a deal breaker, however, and I encourage all US-based coders who are interested to apply. RHRealityCheck.org is a project of the United Nations Foundation's Women and Population Division.
