Adoption and outreach coordinator focused on community engagement and impact.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Adoption Event Coordinator and Outreach Assistant who organizes and hosts 4–6 adoption events per month while driving public awareness, mission education, and volunteer recruiting. I connect applicants, foster families, and event teams to keep adoptions and outreach running smoothly.
In my current role, I review adoption applications, speak with interested adopters, and process adoptions. I also document behavioral, medical, or other relevant information in an online platform and track event statistics to identify adoption patterns and trends.
Before this, I worked as a Case Manager at the Mesa County Workforce Center, where I managed a caseload of 35–55 clients for a federally funded grant program. I built strong rapport, supported job readiness (including interviewing skills and workplace navigation), and partnered with business owners to facilitate meetings and track progress.
Earlier, I served as a Behavior Technician implementing Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy plans for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, working both in homes and the community and collaborating with parents/guardians on weekly therapy schedules. I also bring a customer-service and operations background as a Shift Manager and Server, strengthening my communication, documentation, and problem-solving under pressure.
