  • Facilitating effective communication between tenants, Resident Managers, and property management.
  • Addressing and resolving tenant issues as they arise.
  • Partnering with Resident Managers to foster a positive living environment for all tenants.

This role is a vital component of our prevention services, directly contributing to our mission of ending homelessness.

Qualifications:

A minimum of a high school diploma or equivalent is required; a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work or a related field is strongly preferred. Candidates with a background in social work or mental health will be prioritized, and licensed social workers are encouraged to apply. A minimum of two years of relevant experience is required.
