We've helped cut global warming pollution with Environment America. And working with the Human Rights Campaign, we helped organize the grassroots opposition needed to defeat the discriminatory Federal Marriage Amendment.

NEEDED: 100 TEMP STREET OUTREACH INTERVIEWERS!

2009-07-02T11:37:02-04:00

NEEDED: 100 TEMP STREET OUTREACH INTERVIEWERS!

THE ORGANIZATION:
In 2005, Mayor Bloomberg announced a plan to reduce the number of street homeless adults in New York City by two-thirds over five years. In response, lead agency Goddard Riverside and lead support agency the Center for Urban Community Services (CUCS), together with several other neighborhood-based organizations, developed a collaborative model to transform outreach and housing placement services in the Borough of Manhattan: the Manhattan Outreach Consortium (MOC). The new consortium was selected by the City to provide outreach and housing placement services to those living on the streets of Manhattan. Through a contract beginning in September, 2007, with the NYC Department of Homeless Services (DHS), the MOC became the single point of accountability responsible for all outreach and housing placement services for the borough�s street homeless population.

Consortium Members
The Manhattan Outreach Consortium includes Goddard Riverside Community Center, CUCS, Common Ground Community, Lenox Hill Neighborhood House, The Bridge, Inc., and Urban Pathways. The MOC collectively represents over 150 years of successful experience serving homeless people, including chronically homeless individuals.
Neighborhood-Based Model
The MOC focuses on moving people off the streets and into permanent housing as quickly as possible. Members are assigned to neighborhoods they know well with long histories of addressing community issues. Manhattan has been divided into seven catchment areas with a single MOC member assigned to each area. The MOC is coordinating service delivery among its partners to eliminate duplication and facilitate the sharing of information and continuity of care. Service integration is paramount to the strength of the initiative with measured performance objectives and accountability closely monitored. The MOC maximizes the resources of each member to expedite the placement of chronically homeless individuals in Manhattan into permanent housing with access to social, medical, mental health and substance abuse services.

THE PROJECT:
The Manhattan Outreach Consortium is preparing to conduct the August 2009 Manhattan street registry, which is expected to include brief interviews with between 600 and 900 street homeless adults sleeping in the borough. This comprehensive registry of street homeless individuals will provide the MOC with an updated count and overview of street homelessness in Manhattan, together with a profile of the target populations within and across catchment areas, and client-specific information needed to support efficient and effective services in the MOC�s third year of operations.

THE POSITIONS:
Outreach Interviewers are short-term, independent contractors who report to the Director of the Manhattan Outreach Consortium. Responsibilities include working in small teams to conduct brief, structured interviews with homeless adults living on the street in Manhattan. Interviews will be conducted Monday through Friday during early morning hours (approximately 5:30am � 7:30am), when homeless individuals are most easily located and identified. Paid training will be held on Thursday, July 30th and/or Friday, July 31st; outreach work will begin on Monday, August 3rd, and will continue through the second or third week of August.

QUALIFICATIONS:
Experience working with adults affected by homelessness, serious and persistent mental illness, and/or substance abuse is required; specific experience with street outreach is preferred. Fluency in spoken and written English is required; proficiency in spoken and written Spanish or other language is preferred. A bachelor�s degree in psychology, social work, or a related field is preferred, but current students are encouraged to apply.

COMPENSATION:
Compensation for these positions will be $20 per hour.

APPLICATIONS:
Please e-mail a cover letter describing the reasons for your interest in the project, a CV or resume, and two work references to Kristen Edwards, MOC Director, at OutreachHire@gmail.com.

Part of the Solomon Schechter franchise, Schechter Manhattan is affiliated with the Conservative movement, and is fully egalitarian.

NEEDED: 100 TEMP STREET OUTREACH INTERVIEWERS!

2009-06-30T13:37:19-04:00

THE ORGANIZATION:
In 2005, Mayor Bloomberg announced a plan to reduce the number of street homeless adults in New York City by two-thirds over five years. In response, lead agency Goddard Riverside and lead support agency the Center for Urban Community Services (CUCS), together with several other neighborhood-based organizations, developed a collaborative model to transform outreach and housing placement services in the Borough of Manhattan: the Manhattan Outreach Consortium (MOC). The new consortium was selected by the City to provide outreach and housing placement services to those living on the streets of Manhattan. Through a contract beginning in September, 2007, with the NYC Department of Homeless Services (DHS), the MOC became the single point of accountability responsible for all outreach and housing placement services for the borough�s street homeless population.

Consortium Members
The Manhattan Outreach Consortium includes Goddard Riverside Community Center, CUCS, Common Ground Community, Lenox Hill Neighborhood House, The Bridge, Inc., and Urban Pathways. The MOC collectively represents over 150 years of successful experience serving homeless people, including chronically homeless individuals.
Neighborhood-Based Model
The MOC focuses on moving people off the streets and into permanent housing as quickly as possible. Members are assigned to neighborhoods they know well with long histories of addressing community issues. Manhattan has been divided into seven catchment areas with a single MOC member assigned to each area. The MOC is coordinating service delivery among its partners to eliminate duplication and facilitate the sharing of information and continuity of care. Service integration is paramount to the strength of the initiative with measured performance objectives and accountability closely monitored. The MOC maximizes the resources of each member to expedite the placement of chronically homeless individuals in Manhattan into permanent housing with access to social, medical, mental health and substance abuse services.

THE PROJECT:
The Manhattan Outreach Consortium is preparing to conduct the August 2009 Manhattan street registry, which is expected to include brief interviews with between 600 and 900 street homeless adults sleeping in the borough. This comprehensive registry of street homeless individuals will provide the MOC with an updated count and overview of street homelessness in Manhattan, together with a profile of the target populations within and across catchment areas, and client-specific information needed to support efficient and effective services in the MOC�s third year of operations.

THE POSITIONS:
Outreach Interviewers are short-term, independent contractors who report to the Director of the Manhattan Outreach Consortium. Responsibilities include working in small teams to conduct brief, structured interviews with homeless adults living on the street in Manhattan. Interviews will be conducted Monday through Friday during early morning hours (approximately 5:30am � 7:30am), when homeless individuals are most easily located and identified. Paid training will be held on Thursday, July 30th and/or Friday, July 31st; outreach work will begin on Monday, August 3rd, and will continue through the second or third week of August.

QUALIFICATIONS:
Experience working with adults affected by homelessness, serious and persistent mental illness, and/or substance abuse is required; specific experience with street outreach is preferred. Fluency in spoken and written English is required; proficiency in spoken and written Spanish or other language is preferred. A bachelor�s degree in psychology, social work, or a related field is preferred, but current students are encouraged to apply.

COMPENSATION:
Compensation for these positions will be $20 per hour.

APPLICATIONS:
Please e-mail a cover letter describing the reasons for your interest in the project, a CV or resume, and two work references to Kristen Edwards, MOC Director, at OutreachHire@gmail.com.

Food Handler - at a Shelter (Nolita / Bowery)

2009-06-29T14:36:20-04:00

BRC: Helping People to Reclaim Lives Lost.

BRC is a leading provider of housing and services to thousands of New York City�s neediest individuals. Offering a hand up, not a hand out, BRC asks one simple question: What can we do for you? BRC sees the potential in each individual it serves, and provides each the opportunity to find it. Whatever our clients may seek, BRC has it, 24/7/365: outreach to homeless people living in public spaces, drug treatment, mental health care, comprehensive medical services, vocational services, and supportive communities in which to live. More than 4,700 times in 2008, an individual in need said yes to BRC and walked through our doors; and over 2,600 times, a BRC client successfully graduated, and moved forward to reclaim their life. BRC succeeds by building trust with the people it serves; listening, and then acting, providing housing � both temporary and permanent � to over 1,100 individuals daily, and services through 25 programs located throughout New York City. Building trust takes time, and a compassionate, dedicated staff of over 450 employees and 300 volunteers that persevere 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year, never giving up. And neither do our fellow New Yorkers, who called the BRC Homeless Helpline nearly 2,000 times last year.

The cats/kittens are wonderful and loving and have been to the vet and are sometimes a little shy and need a place to stay for a couple of weeks while they get love and learn to trust. It is a great opportunity to make a little money, have a loving and rewarding experience and learn first-hand what it is like to have a pet and if a pet may permanently fit into your life someday. Food and some other necessities are provided to the foster home.

2009-06-26T13:22:11-04:00

The Salesforce.com Foundation was officially launched in July 2000 by former Secretary of State, Colin L. Powell. The launch of the Foundation came less than a year after the founding of the company with the goal of building philanthropic programs at the very beginning of the company's existence, rather than waiting until the company had reached a certain level of 'comfortable success'. Our belief is that if emphasis is placed on philanthropy from a company's inception, the value of service will be a core cultural value built into the fabric of the company.

The Salesforce.com Foundation is changing the game for how companies operate in the world by delivering and promoting a fully integrated model for philanthropy. We harness the power of product and people to improve the lives of those in need through a unique integrated philanthropy model�1% Time, 1% Equity, and 1% Product. We employ strong partnerships to empower the �on-demand� nonprofit to focus on its success and efficiency; inspire and support employee volunteers to take meaningful action to improve the world; and help youth find and reach their full potential. Our mission is to remain the leader in pioneering, championing and implementing the 1% model, and to use this model as a means to improve the lives of people around the world. We call this the Power of Us.

Paid Campaign Manager For Civil Court Judge (Democrat) (Chelsea)

2009-06-26T10:24:11-04:00

The campaign of a New York City Civil Court Judge, who has been widely endorsed by Democratic Party officials, is seeking a dynamic person for campaign manager.

This position will provide an excellent opportunity for the right individual who is interested in gaining a thorough understanding of the political operations of the political system in New York.

An ideal candidate would be a college senior or graduate student who is studying political science, is interested in politics, or may be pursuing a legal career and is available full time through the end of the campaign.

While experience in working for political campaigns would be very helpful, it is not a prerequisite. Most importantly is the focus and drive to work tirelessly over the next months to assure victory for the candidate in the polls in September.

A campaign committee of experienced, talented campaign veterans has already been formed to provide guidance.

The campaign manager position will be considered an independent contractor. Compensation is commensurate with experience and goal-based focusing on attaining weekly benchmarks and on the ultimate outcome.

Please respond to this ad with your resume, a letter explaining why you should be considered and your career goals in an MS Word or PDF format.
