outreach, volunteer recruitment and screening, matching, home visits, and
reporting. Additionally, the Coordinator is responsible for regular community
engagement and leadership of local neighborhood initiatives that serve the
FriendshipWorks mission. The position requires the ability to work independently, as
well as in coordination with other Friendly Visitor Coordinators and the Director of
