(FULL-TIME. JD NOT REQUIRED)
Since 1994, The Family Center has provided legal, social, and mental health services to New Yorkers facing the intertwined challenges of poverty and severe illness. Founded during the height of NYC’s HIV epidemic to provide multidisciplinary support to HIV-affected families, TFC now serves many populations including those coping with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses, life-limiting disabilities, trauma, and parental absence.
TFC is seeking a Legal Services Coordinator to join its Legal Wellness Institute, a team of dedicated attorneys and advocates providing holistic, community-based legal services to low-income New Yorkers affected by serious illness and disability. Our legal services promote health and stability for medically fragile New Yorkers, and encompass four practice areas: (1) Housing Law; (2) Family Law; (3) Public Benefits and Health Care Access; and (4) Lifetime Planning. LWI’s unique model is designed to meet the needs of our specific client population. In keeping with our commitment to holistic representation, all LWI staff work on cases in all of our practice areas. And for clients unable to travel to our office, we bring the law office to the client: meeting in clients’ homes, hospitals, hospices, and other sites throughout NYC.
All LWI team members receive extensive orientation, ongoing training, and many opportunities for professional growth and development. Legal Service Coordinators manage individual work and caseloads, but function as part of a collaborative, close-knit team and receive significant mentorship and guidance. Our work is complex and challenging, but TFC is committed to supporting staff in doing this work well and encourages work-life balance and self-care.
