Applications including a resume and cover letter are being accepted through February 17, 2026. This is not a site-based service role.

You will work closely with our Director of Resident and Community Services, Resident Services and Operations leaders, and our Chief Strategy Officer to translate resident needs, survey data, and policy and funding trends into a strong, accountable, and culturally responsive network of service partners. This role plays a central role in strengthening housing stability, resident wellness, and access to opportunity across EBALDC’s housing portfolio.
