Living in TRP housing means our tenants are better positioned to afford basic health and food costs, save for the unexpected, and broaden their economic opportunities. By expanding the workshops and services TRP offers, the Resident Services Coordinator will help increase resident engagement and retention while connecting tenants to the resources needed to maintain stable housing. Alongside the REAS team, the VISTA will coordinate tenant events, activities, and educational presentations, recruit local organizations to host workshops, create marketing materials to promote events, and collect event feedback to assess resident satisfaction and needs. The VISTA will research and develop strategies to increase access to wraparound services for tenants and new applicants. By the end of service, they will create a standard operating procedure document to train staff in the processes of connecting residents to community services.</p> <p>Program Benefits : Health Coverage* , Childcare assistance if eligible , Choice of Education Award or End of Service Stipend , Living Allowance , Relocation Allowance , Training .</p> <p>Terms :</p> <p>Permits working at another job during off hours , Permits attendance at school during off hours , Car recommended .</p> <p>Service Areas :</p> <p>Community Outreach , Community and Economic Development , Housing , Neighborhood Revitalization .</p> <p>Skills :</p> <p>Team Work , Social Services , Public Speaking , Recruitment , Communications , Conflict Resolution , Community Organization .</p>
