Finance and Contract Compliance Specialist

Contract Position

As the Title X (Ten) family planning program grantee in Texas, Every Body Texas provides uninsured and low- income Texans access to high-quality reproductive healthcare through its diverse network of Title X-supported health centers. Every Body Texas provides funds as a passthrough organization and is responsible to ensure compliance with the Title X program, including financial and contract compliance. The education, counseling, and clinical services available to individuals in Title X health centers promote positive birth outcomes and healthy families.

This contract position is funded for approximately six (6) months. The position may be extended if additional funding is obtained.

Who We Are

At Every Body Texas, we work to ensure that every person in Texas can access safe, unbiased, high- quality sexual and reproductive healthcare by funding and training healthcare providers in a way that increases access for clients.

As the statewide Title X grantee for Texas, we managed more than $15M in Title X funding in Grant Year 2024 for more than 158 clinics across the state—funding that is critical to ensuring that clinics stay open and deliver much needed sexual and reproductive healthcare to more than 187,000 people in Texas every year.

We also deliver training and technical assistance to providers and conduct policy, advocacy, research activities, and special projects that promote increased access to care.

We strive to operate from a place of humility and inclusion, keeping six values central to our work:

·      Dignity: Each person has the right to make their own healthcare decisions.

·      Access: There should be no barriers between people and the healthcare they want and need.

·      Facts: When provided with complete, accurate information, people can make the best healthcare decisions for themselves.

·      Equity: Each of us deserves high-quality sexual and reproductive healthcare, regardless of our identity, income, or circumstances.

·      Innovation: There is always a better way.

·      Quality of Care: Clients deserve the best care, and providers deserve the best support.
