Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionDescription:STEAM Program Specialist
Full-time, $60,000-68,000 + full benefits
Location: SeaTac, WA (In Person)
About the Organization:
African Community Housing & Development (ACHD) is a culturally specific, community-founded organization led by visionary Black women and a community Board of Directors. ACHD works towards an informed African Diaspora immigrant and refugee community that is engaged in the holistic development of families, communities, and environment. ACHD focuses on equitable and culturally relevant health, legal, and educational services; housing stability and economic development; and land-use, real estate, and property development. Collectively, ACHD staff speak a dozen languages, and the majority identify as Black or People of Color.
About the Position:
The STEAM Program Specialist will work together closely with the Education Coordinator to create and teach vibrant, culturally relevant educational programs for African Diaspora youth. Our programs provide a unique, holistic approach to STEAM education that integrates SEL, outdoors, and academics to prepare students for the future that they will create—and the ideal STEAM Program Specialist is an educator who is ready to collaborate with their students through the learning process. This position will also require an educator who is comfortable in informal educational settings, particularly the outdoors, and is passionate about equity and justice.
Position Duties:
Supervisory Responsibilities: This position has no supervisory responsibilities.
Benefits Package: African Community Housing & Development offers a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, life, and long-term disability insurance, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), 401(k) retirement plan, 11 paid holidays, 10 sick days accrued monthly, and 15 vacation days accrued monthly.
Note: ACHD emphasizes a highly collaborative approach that is rooted in equity and co-learning. Supervisors are to lead with equity and humility, recognizing that each staff member brings a highly valuable and essential background and perspective. Accordingly, supervisors are also accountable to staff members, working to ensure they (supervisors) are meeting the needs of staff and providing a healthy and safe environment where feedback and learning is two-way. In other words, supervisors should work to build a positive environment where staff and supervisors learn together, and mistakes are considered a healthy part of personal and professional growth.
African Community Housing and Development does not discriminate in employment on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy and gender identity), national origin, political affiliation, sexual orientation, marital status, disability, genetic information, age, membership in an employee organization, retaliation, parental status, military service, or other non-merit factor.
