Outreach Specialist - Transit Homeless Outreach
Full-Time | 37.5 hours/week | Field-Based | 24/7 Program
Do Work That Actually Changes Lives
Every night, hundreds of New Yorkers sleep in the subway system. BRC's Transit Homeless Outreach team meets them where they are-building trust and helping individuals transition into housing and stability.
As an Outreach Specialist, you'll engage directly with individuals experiencing chronic homelessness, providing hands-on support and guidance. This role is ideal for early-career professionals pursuing social work, public health, or human services.
What You'll Do
  • Conduct compassionate, street-based outreach in transit locations
  • Connect clients to housing, medical, mental health, and substance use services
  • Complete brief assessments, provide escorts, and make referrals
  • Document outreach activity and client interactions
  • Work primarily at high-need areas, including end-of-line stations
  • Collaborate with partner agencies and outreach teams

What You'll Gain
  • Hands-on experience in outreach, assessment, and housing navigation within NYC's homeless services system
  • Training in harm reduction, trauma-informed care, and Housing First
  • Supervision, mentorship, and clear internal growth pathways
  • Tuition assistance and professional development support
  • CPR/First Aid certification provided

Who We're Looking For
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
  • Strong communication, documentation, and interpersonal skills
  • Ability to build trust and work effectively in the field
  • Valid driver's license and willingness to travel across boroughs
  • Basic computer skills

Preferred:
  • Experience in outreach, social services, or behavioral health
  • Interest in working with individuals experiencing homelessness, mental illness, or substance use
  • Bilingual (Spanish, Polish, Russian, Chinese, or Korean)

Internal candidates (e.g., Community Technicians with 6+ months experience) are encouraged to apply.
Working Environment
This is a highly active, field-based role. You must be comfortable:
  • Working in transit stations, public spaces, and outdoor environments in all weather
  • Engaging individuals in crisis or with complex behavioral health needs
  • Working closely with individuals who may have limited access to hygiene and personal care and may present with unmet self-care needs
  • Standing, walking, and traveling for extended periods

Schedule
  • Full-time, 37.5 hours/week
  • Day, evening, and overnight shifts available

What We Offer
  • Medical benefits and paid sick time starting Day One
  • 3+ weeks vacation, 12 holidays, plus personal time

  • Tuition assistance and career advancement opportunities
  • A mission-driven team committed to staff wellbeing
