Community Advocate

Magdalena House is seeking a Community Advocate.

Magdalena House (MH) is a neighborhood of transitional homes in San Antonio that serves mothers and their children who have fled dangerous and abusive lives by providing transformation through education, nurturing community and programming. We provide a free, safe transitional home and loving community for those affected primarily by family violence and human trafficking. Families’ needs are addressed and met. Vocational assistance in the form of education, training, and job
readiness is a key ingredient, as mothers are required to attend school by taking college, high school, GED or ESOL classes. Through these and other enrichment courses and activities, mothers develop the
social, educational, and financial skills needed to ensure physical, economic, and spiritual well-being for themselves and their children.

The key responsibility and purpose of this position is to assure a safe, loving and stable environment during assigned shifts; to ensure dignified, respectful and empowering interactions with residents aligning with trauma informed care best practices; to respond to emergencies per prescribed policies.

Position is supervised by the Community Living Manager.
