Director of Family Shelters

Fall River, MA

Hybrid Position

We are not your average social services organization…

We are truly, so much more.

Please read on to learn why.

Come enjoy the charm of working for an amazing long term, well-run social service organization where people genuinely enjoy working together. We are a group of only 125 dedicated people, committed to improving the quality of life for those in need by providing comprehensive social and human services. We provide services in southeastern Massachusetts and Cape Cod with the goal of helping our clients gain long-term stability. We are conveniently located in Fall River, MA away from the heavily travelled commuting routes, with a new state of the art shelter opening in the near future in Attleboro, MA.

Our New Director of Family Shelters will be joining our H.O.U.S.E. (Helping Others until Self-Empowered) team.

H.O.U.S.E is a short-term EA (emergency assistance) shelter program for families. Families are identified and referred to Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Fall River (CCFR) by DHCD (Department of Housing and Community Development).

The main focus of the emergency assistance shelter program is to help families achieve successful placement into stable housing. Our new Director will report directly to the COO, filling the key role by:

· Providing visible enthusiastic leadership to our staff and programs.
