Creating Community Resilience – Outreach and Education Coordinator – Phoenix School of Roseburg

 Creating Community Resilience – Outreach and Education Coordinator – Phoenix School of Roseburg

Creating Community Resilience (CCR) and our backbone organization, Phoenix School of Roseburg, are recruiting a Community Engagement Coordinator to help us realize our Strategic Plan goals (ccrdouglascounty.org – Our Projects – Strategic Plan) and assisting youth and staff with training, facilitation, mentoring and coaching to youth in Phoenix programs and other community organizations. This position will be supervised by the CCR Coalition Manager.

CCR is a community-based organization collaborating to provide regional leadership in preventing and mitigating Adverse Childhood Experiences and Adverse Community Environments by building trauma-informed capacities that create more resilient communities in Douglas County, Oregon. The resource provided by CCR’s collaborative approach is responding to meet the needs of those in our communities most impacted by the effects of personal, family, and community traumas. Health, social, and financial inequities have further challenged the ability of our communities to provide diversity, equity, and inclusion already complicated by racism and oppression and exacerbated by toxic stress, trauma, intergenerational trauma and social determinants. Those capacities include:

a) Increasing trauma-informed awareness through our website/social media, community presentations, and activities like our Lunch, Learn, & Connect series.
b) Organizational development of TI principles and Practices employing Sanctuary and other models of developing organizational TI culture.
c) Providing technical assistance and resources to develop TI-informed systems of care.
d) Engaging in cross-service sector projects that improve social, health, education, and economic outcomes for trauma-affected populations.
e) Providing community connections for Health Care Systems to better reach under-served populations and increase health care equity and outcomes.

The Coalition Coordinator position is designed to be both a “face” of CCR in our community and to engage and coordinate Key Community Leaders, Partners, and resources in carrying out the work of the coalition.
