Counsel, Edupreneur Resource Center (ERC)

Stand Together is a philanthropic community that helps America’s boldest changemakers tackle the root causes of our country’s biggest problems, from education to the economy, broken communities, and toxic division, among dozens of other pressing issues. We provide our partners with access to resources including funding, thought leadership, a network of peers, and a playbook for applying proven principles to transform lives and society. 

Within education, our vision is to enable every student to discover and develop their unique potential and purpose. We advance this vision by supporting a transition from a one-size-fits-all system to a dynamic ecosystem of diverse, high-quality educational options that are tailored to individual needs.

The Stand Together Edupreneur Resource Center (the “ERC”) plays a key role in this effort by equipping education entrepreneurs with the legal and regulatory knowledge they need to launch and grow innovative education ventures.

About the Role

Stand Together seeks a highly motivated and entrepreneurial attorney to join its in-house legal team as Counsel, Edupreneur Resource Center.

This role combines development of scalable legal resources and direct engagement with entrepreneurs, with an emphasis on resource creation. In this role, you will empower education entrepreneurs by translating complex legal and regulatory frameworks into clear, practical, and actionable guidance for non-lawyers. You will develop scalable resources and provide individualized support that enables founders to confidently navigate compliance challenges.

Candidates available to work in-person in Arlington, VA, preferred; remote candidates considered on a case-by-case basis

Why This Role Matters

This role sits at the intersection of law, innovation, and social impact. You will help remove legal and regulatory barriers that limit the growth of new and diverse education models, directly contributing to the ability of education entrepreneurs to operate free from regulatory overreach and the freedom for students and families to access the right educational option for them.

Important Note: The ERC does not provide legal representation or form attorney-client relationships. Instead, it delivers general legal information and practical guidance to help entrepreneurs make informed decisions and advocate for themselves.
