Workcamp Assistant Coordinator
Office of Youth Ministry
Position Summary
For the past 20 years, the Office of Youth Ministry has conducted one week-long teen WorkCamp each summer. For the summer of 2010, the Office has gladly accepted the challenge of conducting a second WorkCamp as a pilot program. Given the volume of requests for assistance as well as the requests by teens to participate, we have no doubt that this second WorkCamp will be very well received. At its conclusion we will evaluate the success of this new initiative and determine whether to continue it in future years. Due to this program growth and expansion, the Office of Youth Ministry is in immediate need of a full-time WorkCamp Assistant Coordinator. The primary focus of the position is to work with social service agencies to locate and prepare homes to be repaired at WorkCamp. This includes visiting each home, assessing the needed repairs, building a relationship with the resident, filing for all building permits, and ordering all needed materials.
Basic construction and home repair experience is required. Must be self-motivated, detail oriented, and very organized. Youth Ministry experience and a desire to serve young people preferred.
The Catholic Diocese of Arlington offers an excellent benefits package and competitive salary.
