About Safe Haven Space:
Be a part of a growing non-profit and help us empower refugee students!
Safe Haven Space is committed to offering mental health and well-being services to refugee students and their families. Mental health has a harmful stigma prevalent in many communities around the world, especially among the refugee population. After being forced out of their original communities, it becomes harder for refugee students to function in both school and life settings without healing from the trauma they encounter before, during, and after their transition to the United States of America. We want to help them succeed in American life and make their adjustment to cultural changes easier through school programs and community engagement.
The concept behind this organization stems from personal experience. As a refugee herself, our Founder is no stranger to the stigmatization of mental health in the community. Learn more about Safe Haven Space through our website.
Position Overview:
The Program Coordinator will oversee the planning, implementation, and evaluation of Safe Haven Space’s mental health and well-being programs. This individual will work closely with staff, volunteers, schools, therapists, interpreters and community partners to ensure programs are effectively delivered and meet the needs of refugee youth and aligned with the organization’s mission.
Responsibilities:
- Coordinate the development and delivery of SHS’s mental health and well-being programs.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for program participants, facilitators, and partners.
