Reports to: Program Director

The coordinator is approximately a 50/50 split between direct service and administrative duties 40 hours per week. Brand new to the organization, this dynamic position has been identified as a crucial role for our growing team, expanding programs, and increasing administrative demands.

From January through early June, this position follows a consistent hybrid schedule, with direct service in school-based programs on Mondays and Tuesdays and administrative support in the office or occasional program substitute days on Wednesday through Friday.

Time off is provided in surrounding weeks to balance extended hours.
