As the Thriving Services Coach, you will participate in the launch of new program initiatives such as 1:1 coaching and women’s circles to support women on their path to thriving and self-sufficiency. DFSC is an organization that values and leverages its small staff and its strong volunteer base. It is a busy place where we like to have fun while digging into the business of helping women reach self defined success. We are committed not only to supporting the women that we serve, but also supporting staff to ensure a healthy balance of work and of being able to care for themselves. We are fortunate to be able to prioritize the goals and needs that women establish for themselves, versus billing protocols and caseload utilization requirements. This allows you to spend your time doing the meaningful work of walking alongside women to explore their personal and professional goals, providing them with tools, community and the support they need to achieve those goals. The work that you have dreamed of doing!

  • Assist women in creating goals/habits that promote their overall well-being and success.
  • Provide resources/referrals to aid women in their journey to thriving.
  • Assist in maintaining relationships with community partners and in developing a “rolodex” of service partners for referrals and care coordination
  • Promote impact measurement culture by actively collecting data and accurately documenting interactions with clients.
  • Be a fearless and consistent advocate of equity, inclusion, and diversity throughout every program and at all levels of the organization
