Position Summary:

We have an exciting opportunity to join our team as a Senior Research Coordinator.

We are seeking a Senior Research Coordinator for a five-year study, Implementation of Overdose Prevention Practices in Permanent Supportive Housing, funded by the National Institutes of Health (PI: Dr. Kelly Doran). Permanent supportive housing (PSH) is the gold standard intervention for ending chronic homelessness and has expanded rapidly across the U.S.

Due to a confluence of individual and environmental risk factors, PSH tenants face heightened risk for overdose (OD). This study will tailor a set of evidence-based OD prevention practices for PSH settings and study their implementation in 20 PSH buildings in New York. Implementation strategies will include an implementation toolkit, tenant-staff implementation champion dyads, practice facilitation, and learning collaboratives.

The project begins with a preparatory phase, using key stakeholder focus groups to develop a PSH OD Prevention Toolkit and implementation guide. Next, a stepped wedge trial of the toolkit will be conducted with 20 PSH buildings. The primary outcome in this Hybrid Type 3 effectiveness-implementation study is PSH building fidelity to the OD prevention practices. We will additionally examine secondary implementation outcomes, tenant clinical outcomes, and implementation sustainment with tenant and staff surveys, administrative data analysis, and qualitative interviews. The multidisciplinary investigator team will work with a Stakeholder Advisory Board. The project will be conducted in partnership with the Corporation for Supportive Housing, a national organization that advances solutions to improve PSH through education, practice, and policy.

The Senior Research Coordinator will be responsible for providing support and project management in conjunction with the PI, the Program Manager, Associate Research Coordinator, Research Scientist, community partners, research staff, and other investigators. The Research Coordinator will be critical for ensuring successful implementation of the study, filling a range of roles and meeting study goals while adhering to regulatory requirements and ensuring that deliverables are met effectively, on time, and are of high quality. The ideal candidate will be highly organized, adept in the conduct of research, and have research and community engagement experience.

The Research Coordinator must be able to work autonomously, while maintaining good communication with the study PI, Program Manager, and study partners. While the primary role for the Research Coordinator will be implementing the described NIH-funded study, we are seeking a candidate who would be excited to take on other roles as needed for different studies within Dr. Dorans portfolio and the Health x Housing Lab (described here).

We are especially interested in candidates who, through their research, professional activities, and/or service will contribute to the diversity and excellence of NYULHs commitment to diversity and inclusion. Black/African American, Latina/e/o* and Indigenous individuals as well as people with lived experience of homelessness or housing insecurity are encouraged to apply.
