One Family Inc. Coach, One Family Scholars Program

3 weeks ago

Boston, United States Positively Partners Full time

Massachusetts residents face some of the highest costs of living in the country, leading to high rates of family homelessness. At present, about 728,000 people live below the federal poverty level in Massachusetts. According to recent Census data, 265,000 households in the state are “rent-burdened,” paying over 30% of their income to rent alone. At present, over 24-25,000 parents and children are in the Massachusetts Emergency Assistance family shelter system. This is the second highest rate of family homelessness in the nation, trailing only New York. Furthermore, this official number does not include the thousands more homeless families who are living doubled-up, couch surfing, or taking shelter in cars or campgrounds.

Families need stable income to afford stable housing but low-income parents face an onslaught of systemic barriers on the road to higher education, stable careers, and increased income. At One Family, our goal is to break down barriers to education and career access, so that homeless and low-income families can achieve financial independence and long-term housing stability.

As a One Family Scholars Coach, you will help address the issue of family homelessness through coaching in our One Family Scholars Program — to help families increase their income to achieve economic and housing stability. You’ll work hand-in-hand with clients to identify, set, and reach important life goals. This is your chance to serve as a positive and encouraging advocate and introduce the key tools and knowledge that can help people to be their best and achieve their dreams.

The **One Family Scholars program** is a multi-year program that provides individualized college and career coaching to low-income parents pursuing a college degree. Student parents also receive scholarships that help to offset both direct and indirect costs of college.

You’ll be a great fit if you have a passion for service and share a belief that all families should have access to secure housing, education that leads to employment, and the ability to build assets to create a brighter future. Most importantly, it is your ability to build strong relationships with the families and communities of color that we serve that will help you to excel at this important work.

**WHAT YOU’LL GET TO DO**

As a Coach, you will have the opportunity to support families as follows:

- Provide one-on-one education and career coaching that is empowering, supportive, and strength-based, while ensuring that participants have clear and actionable goals to work towards
- Facilitate group workshops, small group meetings, and individual coaching sessions, ensuring that all participants are engaged and have a full understanding of the session’s content
- Collaborate to adapt and refine existing curricula and training materials to ensure it meets the needs of the families we serve and supports their goals
- Collaborate on client intake and retention, in support of enrollment, performance, and completion benchmarks
- Maintain required records and documentation to ensure accurate data collection and tracking of participant outcomes

**WHO YOU ARE**

This role will report to a Senior Coach on the One Family team.

**WHAT YOU’VE ALREADY DONE**:

- Commitment to the mission and values of One Family
- Experience working or volunteering with individuals and/or families with low incomes who may be experiencing housing insecurity or homelessness
- Passion for coaching, mentoring, and building trusted relationships with others to achieve challenging goals
- Ability to solicit, receive and grow from both positive and adjusting feedback
- Commitment to teamwork and collaboration with colleagues from diverse backgrounds
- Ability to build high quality connections with colleagues and community members
- Outstanding communication skills and ability to advocate for your point of view and to influence others
- Excellent time management skills and ability to prioritize competing priorities in ways that advance high quality outcomes

This is a full-time position. The One Family team works hybrid and staff typically comes into the Boston office once a week. Expected start date for this role is Summer 2024.

**WHAT WE OFFER**

The salary for this position is $58,950. To ensure internal parity, salary is set according to an explicit compensation policy and in line with the current staff in the same job group. One Family also offers a comprehensive benefits package to promote your professional growth and development, which includes:

- Medical and dental insurance, supplemented by healthcare reimbursement account
- 403(b) retirement plan and employer contribution
- Paid time off
- Paid parental leave
- Flexible spending accounts (healthcare and dependent care)
- Life insurance and disability insurance
- Pre-tax commuter benefits
- Tuition reimbursement
