Life Coach (Day Shift)
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections with real content. We must not repeat job title. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, scam warning, application instructions, contact info, etc. Also remove duplicated lines. Keep substantive info. We need to parse content: - Intro: "Why work with YWCA Seattle King Snohomish? YWCA SKS is the region’s largest non-profit organization with a 120+ year legacy, focused on the needs of women, with programs serving 7,000 people each year. When you work with YWCA, you make a difference. We’re women and BIPOC-led, family-centered, and supportive of employees. As a full-time YWCA employee (30+ hours), you’ll enjoy a benefits package including medical insurance, generous vacation, holiday, sick leave plans, and an outstanding retirement plan. Put your passion for racial equity and social justice to work – apply today!" That's about organization and benefits. Could be "About the role" or maybe "Benefits". But we have separate Benefits section later. - "What You'll Do": description of Edmonds New Start Center, Life Coach role, responsibilities. - Then "Expectations of your role:" with subheadings: Case Management, Safety and Security, Administrative Duties. - Then "Must have's to be successful:" list of requirements. - Then "Hours, Rate, and Benefits": Hourly Rate: $28.00, Hours: 40 Hours per week, Excellent benefits package including medical insurance, retirement plan, plus generous vacation, holiday, and sick leave plans. Also mention Fidelity 403b after hire, YWCA Retirement Fund after two years. - Then "Physical Requirements": details. - Then other sections: "YWCA encourages applicants with a variety of experiences to apply!" (lived expertise). "Mental Health Considerations". "Equal Opportunity Employment" (boilerplate to remove). Contact info etc to remove. We need to produce sections: About the role (maybe intro), Responsibilities (what you'll do), Requirements (must have's), Qualifications (maybe education/experience?), Skills (maybe skills list), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide what content goes where. We have: - About the role: could be the intro about YWCA and the position purpose. Could combine "Why work with YWCA..." and description of EDNSC and Life Coach role overview. - Responsibilities: the bullet list under "Expectations of your role:" (Case Management, Safety and Security, Administrative Duties) plus maybe the duties described earlier (conduct intakes, setting goals, connecting clients, facilitating workshops, monitoring progress). Could combine. - Requirements: "Must have's to be successful:" list (experience, degree, understanding, knowledge, skills). Also maybe "Physical Requirements" could be part of Requirements? But we could keep separate? The instruction says only include sections when posting has real specific content. Physical Requirements is specific content; we could include as a section maybe under Requirements or as its own? But we only have predefined headings; we could put physical requirements under Requirements or maybe under Skills? Better to put under Requirements as it's a requirement. - Qualifications: maybe education (Associate's Degree) and experience (2 years case management). Could be separate but we already have that in Must have's. Might combine. - Skills: list of skills like Motivational Interviewing, Housing First, Harm Reduction, case management, crisis intervention, etc. Also computer literacy, organizational skills, communication, etc. - Benefits: medical insurance, retirement plan, generous vacation, holiday, sick leave, Fidelity 403b after hire, YWCA Retirement Fund after two years. - Pay: Hourly Rate: $28.00. - Schedule: Hours: 40 Hours per week, Monday to Friday with occasional weekend work. We must not include placeholder text like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We must not include boilerplate: EEO, equal opportunity, contact, etc. Remove "As an equal opportunity employer, we highly encourage people of color to apply." That's EEO boilerplate; remove. Also remove "Equal Opportunity Employment" section. Remove "For more information Contact us at careers@ywcaworks.org". Remove "YWCA encourages applicants with a variety of experiences to apply!" maybe keep as part of About? It's about lived expertise; could be included in About the role or maybe as a note but not boilerplate. It's substantive about valuing lived expertise. Keep. "Mental Health Considerations" is also substantive about secondary trauma; could be included maybe under Requirements or as a note. Could be part of Responsibilities? Might be better to include under Requirements as a consideration. But we have no specific heading for that; we could incorporate into Requirements or maybe under Skills? It's not a skill. Could be part of About the role? Might be okay to include as a paragraph under About the role or Responsibilities. Since we need to preserve all substantive information, we need to include it somewhere. Could add a
under About the role or Responsibilities. Probably under Responsibilities as it's about employee wellbeing. We must not include duplicated lines. Now craft HTML: We'll start with
About the role
then... intro about YWCA, mission, full-time benefits, lived expertise note maybe.
ThenResponsibilities
then- ... list items.
We need to include case management duties: Provide high quality structured culturally responsive trauma-informed case management, resource coordination, stability planning; Utilize MI, Housing First, Harm Reduction to assist clients with Housing Stability Action Plan; Conduct periodic room inspections; Help prepare and distribute daily cold-prepared meals; Incorporate YWCA’s Social Justice Initiative understanding intersections; Treat all with respect; Safety and Security: maintain knowledge of fire/safety/disaster plans; maintain confidentiality; ability to de-escalate conflicts; Administrative Duties: maintain accurate client records; understand and follow policies; plus earlier duties: conducting intakes, setting/tracking goals, connecting clients to resources, facilitating life skills workshops, monitoring progress toward housing stability.
We'll combine.
Then
Requirements
then- ... Must have's list plus physical requirements maybe.
But we also have Qualifications and Skills sections; we need to decide what to put where.
We could treat "Must have's" as Requirements (experience, degree, understanding, knowledge). Then Skills as separate list of skills (case management, motivational interviewing, mental health, chemical dependency, domestic violence, crisis intervention, victims of domestic violence, child abuse, substance abuse, mental health, welfare rights, case management, sexual assault, employment services, child development, positive parenting skills, organizational/time management, initiative, collaboration, ethics, integrity, computer literacy, ability to respond in emergency, listen/respond, maintain boundaries, calm demeanor). Also maybe include "Knowledge of and/or experience as a service provider with any of the following:" list.
Qualifications could be education: Associate's Degree in social services related field with at least 2 years of case management experience.
But we already have degree and experience in Must have's. To avoid duplication, we could put degree/experience under Qualifications, and the rest under Requirements/Skills.
Let's parse Must have's:
- Experience with case management, motivational interviewing, mental health, chemical dependency, and domestic violence
- Associate's Degree in social services related field with at least (2) years of case management experience working with low-income homeless and chronically homeless
- Comprehensive understanding of issues around homelessness, poverty and trauma, especially as they affect specific populations, including but not limited to veterans, families, the elderly & disabled, people who live with chronic mental illness, youth, LGBTQI people, immigrants & refugees, and people of color
- Knowledge of and/or experience as a service provider with any of the following: crisis intervention, victims of domestic violence, child abuse, substance abuse, mental health, welfare rights, case management, sexual assault, employment services, child development, and positive parenting skills
- Strong organizational, time management, and prioritization skills, with the ability to manage multiple clients and tasks simultaneously
- Attention to detail, oral and written communication organizing/time management, initiative, collaboration, ethics and integrity
- Basic computer literacy with ability to use Outlook, Microsoft Word, Excel, and SharePoint
- Ability to respond appropriately in emergency situations, including de-escalation, crisis response, and safety protocols
- Ability to listen and respond appropriately to client needs and concerns
- Maintain professional client/staff boundaries in accordance with YWCA Policy
- Ability to maintain calm, caring and professional demeanor (especially in stressful situations)
Thus we can split:
Qualifications: Associate's Degree in social services related field with at least 2 years of case management experience working with low-income homeless and chronically homeless.
Requirements: Comprehensive understanding of homelessness, poverty, trauma affecting specific populations; Experience with case management, MI, mental health, chemical dependency, domestic violence; Knowledge/experience as service provider with listed areas.
Skills: Strong organizational, time management, prioritization; Attention to detail, oral/written communication, initiative, collaboration, ethics, integrity; Basic computer literacy; Ability to respond in emergency; Ability to listen/respond; Maintain boundaries; Calm demeanor.
We also have Physical Requirements: could be under Requirements or maybe a separate section but we don't have heading for Physical Requirements. Could include under Requirements as a bullet.
Benefits: medical insurance, retirement plan, generous vacation, holiday, sick leave; Fidelity 403b after hire; YWCA Retirement Fund after two years.
Pay: Hourly Rate: $28.00.
Schedule: Hours: 40 Hours per week; Monday to Friday with occasional weekend work.
Also note about lived expertise: we can include in About the role.
Mental Health Considerations: could be under Requirements or maybe as a note under Responsibilities (staff self-care). We'll add a bullet under Responsibilities maybe: "Employees are encouraged to seek support and maintain self-care due to risk of secondary trauma." Or include in About.
