A Care Coordinator is responsible for the overall care and coordination of volunteers for a specific Isaiah 117 House location. He or she will equip, encourage, and engage volunteers through volunteer training, appreciation, communication, and will work to foster connection between the location staff and volunteers. The Care Coordinator’s focus is the team of Caregiver Volunteers (those who serve directly with guests in our homes) ensuring our non-negotiable standard, “the way we treat each child who enters an Isaiah 117 House,” is always a top priority. A Care Coordinator will often assist with the Support Volunteer Team in the absence of a Support Coordinator at a location.
