About Glide
GLIDE is a nationally recognized center for social justice, dedicated to fighting systemic injustices, creating pathways out of poverty and crisis, and transforming lives. Through its integrated comprehensive services, advocacy initiatives, and inclusive community, GLIDE empowers individuals, families, and children to achieve stability and to thrive. GLIDE is on the forefront of addressing some of society’s most pressing issues, including poverty, housing and homelessness, and racial and social justice. GLIDE’s mission is to create a radically inclusive, just, and loving community mobilized to alleviate suffering and break the cycles of poverty and marginalization.
Position Summary:
The Field Director of the Cecil Williams Community Ambassadors Program is a community leader, overseeing GLIDE’s efforts to help create a safer, cleaner neighborhood that provides impactful services. The Field Director is responsible for achieving the Ambassador program’s target outcomes and KPIs. This “on the ground” community engagement role leads a team of Community Ambassadors who provide low-threshold case management and community-building activities. The Director is responsible for implementing the Ambassador program and operations in alignment with its funding contract, GLIDE’s values, and the GLIDE FORWARD strategic plan focused on integrated services and strong neighborhood relationships.
The Director in the field each day focuses on community-building, quality assurance, and wraparound low-threshold case management. The Director understands the many ways in which poverty, marginalization, and other forms of trauma negatively impact community wellness and stays abreast of trauma-informed methods for optimal care. This position requires direct contact with diverse, high-risk individuals with complex needs, many of whom are active substance users. This job also involves street and neighborhood outreach where potential and/or current clients may spend time and/or live. Regular visibility and predictable attendance are essential and mandatory.
