Description

WHO WE ARE

Since 1993, The Pathfinder Network (TPN) has provided justice-system impacted individuals and their families tools and support to be safe and thrive in our communities. We serve individuals experiencing incarceration, those reentering the community, those on forms of community supervision, their families, and their children, within nine of Oregon’s 11 corrections facilities and in the community in Multnomah, Jackson, Marion, and Clackamas Counties.

We develop and deliver a comprehensive scope of evidence-based, trauma-, gender- and culturally-responsive cognitive behavioral-based programs, including our proprietary Parenting Inside Out curriculum, which is highly rated for parenting skills in the criminal justice system. Our community programs feature holistic wraparound individual and group support and services. We serve an average of 3,000 people a year agency-wide.

We support our employees with a total compensation package focused on compensation, development, wellness, benefits, recognition and service, including:

• Generous paid time off (12 accrued vacation days + 12 accrued sick days during the first year, mental wellness hours)
• 17 paid days of significance each year
• Extended holiday time with a week off at year end and three 4-day weekends
• Paid 30-minute lunch breaks
• Employer-paid employee-only medical, vision and dental coverage starting first day of employment
• Flexible Spending Account, Dependent Care Assistance Program, and employer-funded Lifestyle Spending Account
• 401k retirement plan with 3% employer match, fully vested immediately
• Employer-paid short-term disability and accidental death and dismemberment insurance
• Potential eligibility for Public Service Student Loan forgiveness
• Employee recognition program, staff appreciation awards and swag store
• Bilingual pay differential for eligible positions
• Shared Leadership model and opportunities to contribute to agency growth
• Development opportunities and trainings

We are intentional about building a healthy and thriving organizational culture and envision a community of staff, partners, volunteers, and donors who are deeply committed to equitable, just and anti-racist practices in every facet of our organization. We engage in continual learning and seek ways to operationalize equitable and inclusive practices. We believe every member on our team enriches our diversity by exposing us to a broad range of ways to understand and engage with the world, identify challenges, and discover, design and deliver solutions.

At TPN, we envision communities that welcome all people, provide second chances, and create pathways to change. We believe all people have the capacity to change. We honor the dignity and worth of every individual, engage clients and employees with compassion, and bring excellence to all we do.
