Community Liaison Application

Waano is a nonprofit which aims to beat the band in improving the quality of life for immigrants Minnesota. We are looking for someone to join our team to act on behalf of Waano, and to be the coordinator and recruiter for our two main programs. 

For our after-school program, we are looking for individuals who can be a point person for Waano and the community needs which are voiced. 

 Our successful after-school program has a large roster of students who attend K-high school in Minnesota. We mostly aim to serve Kindergarten – High school students academically, though we often deal with the entire family unit. We need an individual who can continue to manage and develop relationships with the families which we support. We will also work with this individual to develop materials for the sake of recruiting students for our program, to maintain a high capacity. 

Finally, our Community Liaison must be able to manage communications for our Parent Council. This is essentially a council which comes together to discuss options and find solutions for the needs which the immigrant community voices. We expect that our liaison will host, including inviting and scheduling, our active roster of council members. And recruit, spread the word, and encourage council members to bring in large amounts of individuals for community meetings. 

We look forward to discussing this opportunity with the right candidate. Please visit our offices at 140 W. 98 St. Suite # 102 Bloomington, MN 55420 to discuss the opportunity further, and to apply as a Waano employee. Consider working as a community Liaison and emailing waano@waano.org; or calling 763-313-9078.
