Description

Job Objective:

Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP), a maternal-child, home-visiting program, strives to provide support and education by partnering a highly skilled registered nurse with an at-risk first-time pregnant mother through pregnancy. Following delivery and throughout the child’s first two years of life, the registered nurse supports the new mother and her family as a mentor to promote healthy child growth and development, help reduce child abuse and/or neglect and support them in reaching their goals. Nurse Family Partnership, implemented by Goodwill Industries of Michiana, Inc., (GIM) across 15 counties in Northern Indiana, seeks to address the serious impacts associated with generational poverty and racial disparity that directly contribute to infant and maternal mortality and an individual person’s future success and opportunity.

Acting as an intermediary among community organizations and services, the Outreach Coordinator will work in collaboration with the NFP teams to conduct outreach activities in designated markets to increase demand and referrals to the NFP program. This position reports to the Director of NFP who evaluates performance annually.
