We are looking for a Diversity Recruitment Specialist who can help drive CASA’s recruitment efforts through organization of CASA information sessions, representing CASA at community events and outreach to potential volunteers through email and phone, with the dual goals of increasing both the overall number of volunteers and expanding the diversity of those applying.
CASA of Travis County believes every child who's experienced abuse or neglect deserves to have a dedicated advocate speaking up for their best interest in court, at school, and in our community. To accomplish this, the team at CASA educates and empowers diverse community volunteers who ensure each child's needs remain a priority in an overburdened child welfare system. Through inclusive, honorable and respectful involvement with families, courts and all parties, CASA makes independent and educated recommendations that prioritize children’s safety and, wherever possible, preserve connections to their families.
As a Diversity Recruitment Specialist, you will report to the Director of Volunteer Recruitment and Retention (DVRR) and be a member of the Community Engagement team. The Diversity Recruitment Specialist will focus on creating connections with underrepresented communities and work to increase the diversity among CASA’s pool of volunteer advocates, including but not limited to diversity of race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, differing abilities, and age. The Diversity Recruitment Specialist will support the DVRR in collecting data related to recruitment and assist in program evaluation. The Diversity Recruitment Specialist will demonstrate cultural humility in their interactions with staff, volunteers and community members and will demonstrate a commitment to race equity in all endeavors.
At the end of your first year, success would mean independently implementing the recruitment activities outlined in our recruitment plan. You will have engaged with diverse organizations and community members with the intent of expanding and diversifying our volunteer pool. You will have developed a strong working relationship with the DVRR and Recruitment and Retention team to assist in developing and refining CASA’s recruitment and retention plans.
The Diversity Recruitment Specialist is a critical role to move CASA of Travis County towards meeting our vision of providing a volunteer advocate, safe home and promising future for every child in Travis County who needs us.
