REPORTS TO: EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

 

BACKGROUND:

The F.I.N.D. (Families in Need of Direction) Design is a 501(c)(3), community-based organization, serving Mid-TN middle and high schools’ girls of color by using strength and gender-based, culturally relevant framework to promote cultural history and traditions. This framework embraces girls through powers, gifts, and talents to stimulate the characters of girls of color who desire to become high achievers in their schools and communities. Programs, through partnerships through the school system and juvenile court, are extremely diverse, extending from prevention to intervention, school-based, after-school, and summer “experiences”. The goal of The F.I.N.D. Design programs are to identify girls that are “lost in the shuffle”, are not being heard, and as a result, fall victims of generational trauma and systematic oppression. Our services provide a platform where they can be heard, offered support, and be given tools to build on these strengths. As a result, these strengths they possess, can be used to enhance their lives not only culturally, physically, emotionally, but also mentally, and spiritually. 

This is the perfect job for anyone interested in part-time employment. We offer a very pleasant and family oriented work environment and somewhat flexible hours. Currently, this role will end in June with the potential to continue if funding continues. The goal is to fulfill this position quickly (9/15/2020 or prior).
