What You'll Do
The Economic Resilience Initiative is a dynamic team focused on serving people who are furthest from opportunity by building financial security for women and families. The ERI offers “Hope and Power” and “Money Mechanics” classes, one-on-one financial coaching and customized training to participants, and conducts community workshops in partnership with other service providers. With a spirit of innovation and continuous learning, we strive to provide high-quality services that are culturally appropriate, relevant and valuable to the participants we serve.
The financial coach will provide individualized financial coaching and education classes for community members with the goal of improving money management skills and increasing confidence in meeting financial goals. The coach will provide one-one-one coaching services and administer an incentivized matched savings program, providing financial incentives to participants who accomplish self-identified financial goals. The coach will also connect participants to YWCA employment and economic empowerment resources and to benefits like credit counseling and free tax preparation services. Classes are interactive and customized to meet the needs of each cohort of participants. Topics include improving credit, decreasing debt, increasing savings, improving money management, and avoiding predatory financial services. Our target population varies by class, but typically includes people of color who are low-income, unemployed, and/or homeless, survivors of domestic violence, immigrants or refugees, or other adults or youth who have other barriers to financial stability.
This position requires critical thinking around how external systems impact the work that we are doing through the lens of racism and intersections with poverty. Knowing the core principals of antiracism and grounding those principles in everyday work, as well as working well in non-white environments and championing anti-racism policy, are required job skills and core values. As an equal opportunity employer, we highly encourage people of color to apply.
