  • Foster teamwork, accountability, and exceptional customer service.
  • Connect People to Services - create a sense of safety, security, belonging, and inclusion within the Hospitality Center by maintaining a visible presence, monitoring guest’s needs, ensuring the area is kept calm and incident free. 
  • Oversee client intake, assessments, referrals, and service coordination.
  • Collaborate closely with Case Management and Residential Services to ensure seamless client support.
  • Manage Programs & Compliance - oversee food distribution, clothing, hygiene, showers, laundry, lockers, mail services, donations, and other basic needs programs.
  • Ensure accurate HMIS documentation and timely program data collection.
  • Assist with monthly, quarterly, and annual grant reporting.
  • Monitor program outcomes and ensure compliance with funding requirements.
  • Build Community Partnerships - represent Bethesda House with community organizations, food partners, volunteers, and local stakeholders.
  • Participate in outreach events, community meetings, and volunteer engagement activities.
