WillowBridge Transitional Housing serves aged-out youth in need of a safe place to land. They need more than just a place to live, however. These young adults need to learn the skills and resources to eventually move out of WillowBridge and live on their own – including how to get involved in a community and a church. Tenants have so much God-given potential, they just need caring adults to point the way to Jesus and to successful independence. WillowBridge staff and volunteers provide guidance, accountability, and support to tenants, based on their individual needs.

As the Community Advocate, you will live in the WillowBridge apartments and manage the day-to-day operations there. You will build community with tenants, serve as an in-house mentor, as well as oversee the security and upkeep of the property. You will need to resolve conflict well, practice good discernment, and serve gracefully while drawing and enforcing clear boundaries.
