Community Coordinator - Elementary & Middle School
Are you passionate about fostering meaningful relationships with students and their community? Are you bilingual in Spanish and English? Do you have several years of experience in non profit community work, especially with youth? If so, we want you to be a part of our team! Apply today to join the RA team and make a real impact!
RA Community Coordinators make up the Community Team, which serves as the bridge between students, mentors, families, teachers, coaches and RA’s community partners. The primary responsibility of the Community Coordinator is to mobilize the RA village, especially the RA mentors, ensuring that the youth’s voices are heard, their needs are realized, and their identities are celebrated. An ideal Community Coordinator is a chameleon when it comes to communication in that they have the ability to seamlessly connect with stakeholders from various walks of life. A successful candidate realizes that they are solely responsible for the energy they bring to the community and will self regulate, form realistic boundaries, and nurture their own needs in order to make room for the energy required for this role.
Elementary & Middle School Community Coordinators foster positive, consistent, and productive relationships with a designated caseload of 4th through 8th grade RA students, families and their mentors. They also serve as Site Lead for 2+ schools, which includes coordinating programming with mentors, teachers, building administration, students, and families.
