Reports to: Director of Education and Outreach

Position Overview

At Community Safety Network, we know that a world without domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking is possible, and the Education and Outreach Coordinator plays a pivotal role in shaping that world. The Education and Outreach Coordinator helps Community Safety Network broaden our delivery of healthy relationship, consent, and survivor support education while also spreading awareness of CSN’s work and mission.

The Education and Outreach Coordinator reports to and works collaboratively with the Director of Education and Outreach in logistical support and co-facilitation of educational opportunities for youth, adults, Community Safety Network volunteers, partner organizations, and community members. This role also facilitates the support of Community Safety Network’s volunteer advocates in prevention programming and volunteer opportunities as needed. The Education and Outreach Coordinator manages CSN’s Instagram and Facebook accounts, advertising events and increasing our educational reach through social media. This is a full-time position working a 36-hour week, often including evenings and weekend events. This is a hybrid position that, every week, will combine days working from home and days working from the CSN office.

The right person for this role is excited to bring violence prevention programming to as many people as possible, and finds satisfaction in purposeful, detail-oriented execution. Adaptability, comfort leading or talking to a group, and the desire to work as both part of a team and freely and independently are crucial elements of this role on the CSN team. Success in this role will require independent initiative to meet agreed-upon goals and expectations, empowered problem solving, and eagerness to move projects forward.
