Director of Community Stewardship
Community elder ready to hold the relational center of the foundation.
Who you are
A community elder — ordained, lay, or both — with a track record of holding space for groups doing hard relational work. You're comfortable training facilitators, mediating disputes between partners, and ensuring the foundation's work remains rooted in the lived experience of the people we serve rather than drifting into academic abstraction.
What you'll do
Oversee facilitator training and certification. Serve as the foundation's first-line ombudsman for participant and partner concerns. Curate the foundation's relationships with faith communities, recovery communities, and other partner organizations whose work overlaps with ours. Provide pastoral / elder presence at major foundation events.
What you bring
Ordained ministry, chaplaincy, or comparable community-elder credential preferred. Demonstrated experience training group facilitators. Capacity to model the relational presence the work itself requires.
Compensation
Equity in mission — Birthright is a not-for-profit and does not currently provide monetary compensation. Stipends, honoraria, and grant-funded engagement may emerge as funding allows.
