Job description

Join a dynamic team that makes a difference in the lives of the community! MHI will expand prior capacity building efforts to empower community health workers through further training and certification to assist vulnerable community members and caregivers with navigating the health care system and addressing the ties between environmental conditions and health and well‑being.

The Multicultural Health Institute seeks to fill one VISTA position. As a VISTA member, you will play a key role in volunteer management, communications, and fundraising, helping to strengthen our outreach and engagement with the community. The primary efforts will address volunteer recruitment, outreach, communications, and fundraising efforts. Experience in any or all of these areas will be beneficial but are not required.

Member Duties

Member will expand MHI's volunteer, communications, outreach, and fundraising capacities. Specifically, this project will work to expand community awareness and support for community health worker training and certification with an emphasis on environmental health issues such as heat, disaster preparedness, Red Tide awareness and protection. Several tasks will take place in year one to reach the objective of increasing the efficiency, effectiveness, and program reach. Improving medical‑care navigation will help reduce economic burden for communities disproportionately impacted by expensive health disparities.
