CASA Connections Coordinator

SFCASA is seeking a part-time CASA Connections Coordinator to help strengthen the continuum of support available to young people after their foster care or probation cases are dismissed. Many former CASA volunteers continue their relationships with young people as Natural Support volunteers, providing important stability, connection, and encouragement beyond formal systems involvement.

The CASA Connections Coordinator will identify and build relationships with Bay Area public-benefit and service providers, communicate resources and opportunities to Natural Support volunteers, coordinate training and support groups, provide light case supervision, and track program participation and outcomes. The role reports to the CASA Connections Lead.

• Share applicable resources, events, and news with Natural Support volunteers through the CASA Connections newsletter, Slack, and other program communications.
• Coordinate continuing education, group coaching, and support groups for Natural Support volunteers and young people.
• Provide guidance and light case supervision to Natural Support volunteers to support positive outcomes for young people.
• Facilitate access to funding and activity opportunities for former CASA clients through their Natural Support volunteers, including SFCASA's Sunshine Fund.
• Support programming aligned with SFCASA's core advocacy areas, including Community Connections, Health & Wellbeing, Housing, Education, and Economic Stability.
• Support future recruitment of young adults/former SFCASA clients as Natural Support Navigators and help design young adult networking events in partnership with program leadership.
• Maintain accurate Salesforce/Advocate Link data and partner with the Data and Impact Manager on program reporting, analytics, learning, and evaluation.
• Participate in organizational events and other related duties as needed in a small nonprofit environment.

• Must reside within a 30-mile radius of San Francisco.
• Must successfully complete a comprehensive background screening and reference check.
• A desire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of systems-impacted youth.
• Experience as a CASA volunteer is preferred.
• Strong organizational, time-management, writing, editing, and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to maintain confidentiality and exercise diplomacy and discretion.
• Knowledge of San Francisco Bay Area housing, benefits, public health, healthcare, and/or mental health advocacy is strongly encouraged.
• Ability to work effectively and respectfully with people from diverse backgrounds and lived experiences.
• Positive, solutions-oriented, and flexible approach to work.
• Comfort using Salesforce, Microsoft Word, Excel, and Outlook, and learning new software platforms.
• Applicants with lived experience of the dependency system and/or other systems involvement, and those with extensive experience supporting system-involved youth, are encouraged to apply.
