Based in San Francisco, GroundSpark is a small, Academy Award-winning media production and education organization with a strong national reputation for producing high quality documentary films that open up dialogue about prejudice and discrimination and spark shifts in attitudes, behaviors, laws and policies. Over the past 20 years, GroundSpark has pioneered a long-term social change strategy that pairs media distribution with political and community organizing, and offering professional development on how to use our films to make a difference.
A leader in the field of anti-bias education, GroundSpark’s primary current focus is its Respect For All Project (RFAP). Through the distribution of award-winning films, accompanying curricula, and a training program aimed at educators, youth service providers and parents, the project strives to create safe schools and communities by opening up dialogue about diversity, prejudice and discrimination. Through this work GroundSpark has been a national pioneer advocating for the inclusion of age-appropriate curricula that addresses anti-gay bias.
Our Mission: GroundSpark creates visionary films and dynamic educational campaigns that move individuals and communities to take action for a more just world.
The films in GroundSpark’s Respect For All Project include It’s Elementary—Talking About Gay Issues in School, That’s a Family! (about growing up in different kinds of family structures) and Let’s Get Real (about bullying and prejudice). Our offices are located in San Francisco’s mission district. Our staff is highly committed and dedicated and our office culture is warm, professional yet informal, fun and caring.
GroundSpark is an equal-opportunity employer and actively strives for a diverse, dynamic staff and board. People of color are strongly encouraged to apply.
