Community Coordinator

The Community Conversations Coordinator brings SRQ Strong's mission to life through thoughtfully designed, trauma-informed events and programs.

Who You Are

You are an organized, people-centered coordinator who thrives in both planning and implementation. You bring warmth and professionalism to every event, and you understand that how people feel when they walk through the door matters as much as the agenda. You're comfortable working with data, telling impact stories, and building the community relationships that make programs meaningful.
