Job Title: Admissions Coordinator Department: Admissions Reports To: Regional Admission Coordinator

Position Description

The Admissions Coordinator partners with community organizations, judicial agencies, and other Hope Center Ministries (HCM) Admissions Coordinators to ensure prospective residents are properly screened, vetted, and scheduled for admission into the program. This role is responsible for maintaining timely and accurate reporting in accordance with agency and organizational requirements.

Your “Why”:

Hope Center Ministries Admissions Coordinators serves as the front door to transformation. As scripture says, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled’ (Luke 14:23), and “if a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine ... and go in search of the one that went astray” (Matthew 18:12)? The “why” behind this role is rooted in finding those lost and broken by addiction and introducing them to a path for freedom. The Admissions Coordinator seeks to create a compassionate, structured, and hope-filled first experience for individuals seeking freedom from addiction and life-controlling issues. The Admissions Coordinator also protects the integrity of the program by ensuring residents are appropriately screened, prepared, and aligned with the mission and structure of Hope Center Ministries. Their work supports not only successful admissions, but stronger long-term outcomes for residents, campuses, and families impacted by addiction.
