Encompass Housing works to prevent and end homelessness by providing recuperative care, housing navigation, supportive services, and community-based programs that help individuals and families achieve housing stability and self-sufficiency. Through partnerships with local governments, community organizations, and funders, Encompass Housing addresses barriers to housing and economic security for vulnerable populations. The VISTA Fund Development and Partnership Coordinator will strengthen the organization's capacity to secure resources and build sustainable partnerships that support long-term program growth. Working closely with the Grants Team, the VISTA member will research and identify prospective funding opportunities, focus on funder outreach and grant development activities, and develop systems to track funding prospects. The member will also increase awareness of the organizational services and build relationships with community-based organizations and stakeholders by building capacity for community events, coalition meetings, and networking opportunities. Through these efforts, the VISTA member will help expand organizational resources, increase collaboration across service sectors, and strengthen Encompass Housing's ability to address housing instability and poverty.
