We know it’s a tough world out there for many people and nonprofits.  WithinReach has two temporary (six-month) positions open – with great benefits and potential for full-time – and we wanted to share with this group in case you know people looking.  WithinReach makes it easier for Washington families to navigate complex health and social service systems and connect with the resources they need to be healthy and safe. When families struggle, we are there to help. We work one-on-one with people – over the phone, online and in-person (when not on Stay Home order) – to identify their needs and provide them with immediate support that is close to home.

As you can imagine, during the time of COVID-19 many people are struggling with food – many of whom haven’t had to navigate these services before. We are hiring two Nutrition Resource Specialists to help connect Washington state families to the food resources they need via WithinReach’s contact center. We use web-based integrated databases and link families to food assistance programs such as Basic Food, WIC, Fresh Bucks, children’s meal sites, food banks, seasonal food programs and other local community resources via live phone calls, email and text messaging.
