Community Health Worker, Immigrant Project Coordinator
3 weeks ago
Status: 37.5 hours a week
Term: November 1, 2024- July 31, 2025
Supervisor: Supervisor, Proyecto Buena Salud
Location: North Bergen, NJ
Note: The position is funded for eight months but our aim is to continue the project – and the position - for longer, funds permitting.
Background:Since February 2021, CEUS has deployed Community Health Workers (CHW) to work with the Hudson County immigrant community. The project, with funding from the NJ Department of Health (NJ DOH), aims to develop and implement effective health communication and community engagement strategies to reach immigrant communities. Now called Proyecto Buena Salud (PBS), the project initially focused on CHWs trained by NJ DOH who provided COVID-19 vaccine information. In 2022, we broadened the project so that our CHWs now provide information and referrals on a wide range of health services.
Summary of Principal Responsibilities:- Conduct outreach in immigrant communities in Hudson County, with a particular focus on the Union City-West New York-North Bergen and Jersey City area.
- Make connections with area immigrants, interview them about their health needs and those of their family, and put them in contact with area health agencies who can provide services to address those needs.
- Document the outreach efforts and record the substance and outcomes of each case.
- Research the availability of different health services in the community, and how immigrants can access them.
- Develop and share outreach and information materials with local communities and on social media.
- Meet regularly with the Project Supervisor.
- Document all interviews/information sharing contacts in project databases to create an ongoing record of each case and provide detailed information for monthly metrics reports required by grantor.
- Assist in the preparation of monthly narrative and statistical reports regarding outreach and client counseling efforts to be delivered to the funder.
- High school diploma required; associates or bachelor's degree preferred.
- Public health and/or community organizing experience a plus.
- Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively in multicultural contexts.
- Fluency in written and oral English and Spanish required.
- Ability to attend evening and weekend meetings.
- Comfort with public speaking.
- Self-motivated; detail oriented, well-organized, and able to prioritize assignments and work load.
- Ability to communicate effectively and build mutually respectful relationships with co-workers, partners, and the public.
- Familiarity with virtual meeting platforms and with software applications in a Windows environment, including Microsoft Word.
- Drivers' license and access to car preferred; position requires some travel within New Jersey.
Compensation: $20/hour, depending on experience; 37.5 hours/week.
Interested candidates should submit cover letter, resume and two references via email to Project Supervisor Hugh Morley.
