Resident Services Coordinator

NeighborWorks Boise (NWB) is a nationally recognized non-profit affordable housing association. Known for community engagement volunteer events such as, Rake Up Boise™ and Paint The Town™. Through these events each year, approximately 8,000 volunteers paint homes and rake and winterize the yards of over 750 low- to moderate-income senior and disabled homeowners. As the Resident Services Coordinator, the VISTA will work to create a plan of sustainability for NWB's multifamily properties for the current Resident Services program. This member needs to be able to work with a diverse population, a wide variety of community partners, enjoy community outreach and have the ability to manage several projects simultaneously. The work of the VISTA will directly impact families in our community. From the excited look on a child's face when you tell them about a new summer camp we will be offering, to witnessing the improvement of a resident who is attending ESL classes, this job is extremely rewarding! AmeriCorps Vista is a full time commitment for one year, and this is a one of a kind opportunity to serve at one of Boise's most well known affordable housing and community organizing groups. During your time with NeighborWorks Boise you will gain career and personal skills in both office and community setting. We realize it can be difficult to live off of a stipend, so NeighborWorks is able to offer other incentives including a gas card, rent assistance, and paid travel/training out of state.
