LIFT
Posted: July 3, 2024
POSITION:
LIFT Coach
REPORTS TO:
Program Manager, Coaching
TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT:
16-24 hours/week, full year
WHAT IS LIFT?
LIFT is a national nonprofit on a mission to invest in families to break the cycle of poverty. We believe that racial and gender wealth gaps stem from structural inequities that keep them trapped in a cycle where poverty, like wealth, is passed from generation to generation. At LIFT, we interrupt the generational transmission of poverty by partnering with parents of young children to build well-being, financial strength, and social connections - or as we like to put it, Hope, Money, and Love. LIFT's one-on-one coaching program empowers parents to set and achieve goals that put families on the path toward economic mobility - such as going back to school, improving credit, eliminating debt, or securing a living wage. In addition to coaching, LIFT parents also receive direct cash infusions to reinvest in their families and goals.
LIFT is at an exciting moment in its organizational trajectory. We aim to scale our impact by 1) making continuous improvements to our direct service model, 2) partnering with health care, postsecondary education, early child development, and government organizations to deliver LIFT's model and influence change in those systems, and 3) influencing policy through the amplification of the voices of parents living in poverty on issues impacting their lives and communities. We are looking for team players who thrive in a growth environment of continuous improvement; are committed to LIFT's work to combat intergenerational poverty and expand opportunity for families; and uphold LIFT's values of diversity, equity, excellence, hope, and relationships.
POSITION OVERVIEW
The LIFT Coach is responsible for facilitating one-on-one coaching relationships with parents to support them in achieving self-determined career and financial goals. The LIFT Coach engages parents in goal setting and action planning, monitors parents' progress, and provides accountability and encouragement to parents over time. The LIFT Coach also connects parents to relevant community resources and information, and guides them as they practice new behaviors, actions, and skills necessary to reach goals. Finally, the LIFT Coach will additionally provide support on LIFT other projects, services, and parent recruitment efforts, as needed. Coaches serve a 12-month engagement with LIFT, which includes the academic term practicum as well as a summer internship either before or following the completion of the practicum.
Overall compensation for coaches varies based on the total number of hours and weeks coaches participate in the internship with LIFT in addition to completing their academic practicum. For reference, below is a breakdown of how coaches were compensated last school year. Final pay amounts for next year are currently under consideration for increase, pending LIFT's Board approval in June 2023. Coaches receiving an offer will be sent an initial letter to confirm placement as well as a follow-up letter later this summer with specific pay details upon LIFT Board approval.
Don't think you have everything for this role but are still interested? Please don't hesitate to apply. We'd love to hear from you!
LIFT believes that diversity in all dimensions of the organization supports and bolsters the innovative thinking essential to its success and is committed to providing equal opportunity to all qualified applicants. LIFT's goal is for our people to reflect the communities in which we live and serve and to ensure representation of people of color, women, veterans, and individuals with disabilities in our organization.
