Wage range: $25.45 - $29.69
POSITION SUMMARY
The Resident Services Coordinator I (RSC I) is the frontline anchor of EHRSI's revitalization strategy, delivering tiered service bundles (universal, targeted, intensive) to residents at single or multiple assigned properties. The RSC I provides first level support across all service domains—housing stability, economic mobility, health & wellness, digital inclusion, and youth/family engagement—using trauma-informed, coaching-based practice to advance resident stability, mobility, and wellbeing outcomes.
Working under supervision of the RSM, the RSC I delivers Tier 1 universal programs directly (workshops, wellness checks, community events), provides coaching-based first level support to residents across domains, and facilitates warm handoffs to partner-delivered specialists when intensive or specialized services are needed. The role ensures accurate documentation in EHRSI's CRM (Salesforce), embeds equity and resident voice into daily practice, and contributes to EHRSI's partnership-enabled, cost-neutral service delivery model.
Impact: The ability to effectively coordinate first level support and facilitate appropriate specialist referrals directly impacts EHRSI's mission by allowing residents to maintain housing stability for longer periods, enhancing quality of life, and advancing equity and opportunity for all.
Role Parameters
Caseload Ratio: Approximately 25-60 active resident relationships at across assigned properties (aligned to 1:150 family, 1:125 senior, 1:100 PSH ratios)
Deployment: Site-based; assigned to one property (family, senior, or supportive housing)
Location: Varied property locations across EHRSI portfolio
Transition Note: In 2026, RSC I roles operate within existing staffing, focusing on tiered bundle delivery and accurate outcome tracking. From 2027 onward, RSC I becomes part of a regional operations structure supported by Partner-Delivered Specialists (Youth, Health, Financial Coaching) and central functions (Training & QA, Outcomes & Analytics, Resident Voice, Partnership Development).
