FamilyAid is Greater Boston’s leading provider of solutions to family homelessness. Its mission is to empower parents and caregivers facing homelessness to secure and sustain housing and build strong foundations for their children’s futures.

The hundred-plus year-old agency has launched bold new strategies to reduce two-generation homelessness by dramatically increasing its prevention, housing, and supportive services for children, putting the organization on a fast-growth trajectory. To support these strategies, the agency seeks a dynamic, driven Youth Career and Education Navigator to support the agency’s deepening services to more than 5,000 children and parents.

The Youth Career and Education Navigator will develop career and education pathways through job growth and advancement, continuing education, and occupational training in support of case management for young adults participating in FamilyAid’s programs.

The Navigator will serve as a key liaison to educational and career services and partners. Will work with the agency’s program leadership to maintain existing programmatic partnerships and build new ones that will increase access and enrollment in workforce, education, training and employment programs and services and ensure attainment of outcomes, including assisting homeless youth to attain long-term economic stability.

The successful candidate will have a bachelor’s degree. Master’s degree is strongly preferred. At least 5 years of professional experience in career development, education or other equivalent combination of education and work experience. Demonstratable experience building, advancing, and maintaining strong youth development, training, and education networks.

Bilingual in English and Spanish desired. Knowledge of local communities, urban labor markets, career development principles, and the Massachusetts workforce development system, including education and training providers. FamilyAid’s supportive, collaborative, and diverse workplace is an ideal work environment for experienced, result-oriented professionals who are driven to help children and families thrive.

The agency supports professional growth, and offers competitive salaries, health, and dental plans, an employer-contributed 403b retirement plan, and a generous paid time off package.
