Join our team at the Department of Neighborhood and Community Services (NCS) and help support our mission to partner with communities, families, and individuals to provide opportunities to access a continuum of resources that promote equity and create positive outcomes for people of all ages and abilities. Our vision is to see connected communities where all individuals and families are supported and empowered to thrive.
Work as part of the Culture, Recreation, and Community Connections (CRCC) Division to provide leadership and support for the overall functions of school-based sites that serve school-age youth, and participants up to twenty-one years of age with multiple disabilities, along with center-based sites that serve Youth, Teen, Adult, Senior, and Family programs as the need arises. Plan, coordinate, and evaluate outcome-based inclusive programs for diverse populations, including recreational, educational, health and wellness, social, civic, and cultural programs. Use a human-centered approach and human development best practices to meet the needs of the community and program participants. Provide overall administration, supervision, and leadership to placed-based efforts for the population served and comply with all training and licensure requirements established by state and local guidelines. Conduct targeted community outreach efforts to increase participation and offer programs and services based on community needs and gaps. Provide support to all children in the program, including children with special needs. Work actively and be engaged with staff and children daily.
This position is scheduled to work 52 weeks per year, and requires a split shift schedule Monday through Friday. Additionally, this position requires full day work (8.0 or more consecutive hours) when FCPS is out of school (Teacher Workdays, Winter Break, Spring break, Summer). Nights and weekends work may also be required.
The population of Fairfax County is very diverse where 38.7% of residents speak a language other than English at home (Spanish, Asian/Pacific Islander, Indo-European, and others) and we encourage candidates bilingual in English and a foreign language to apply to this opportunity.
