This is a Program Coordinator Position. It is a Federal Grant filtered through the Board of Education. The person we hire will be contracted by the BOE, therefore, will not receive any benefits but will be paid as a 1099. I have not received the full budget or contract from the State Dept. but was told this could be considered a full time position (30-40 hours a week)
Anyone interested in this job is to email me their resume and I will set up interviews. The ICARE board members will be invited to those interviews.

Attached is the Job description in both PDF and Word format. Please share with anyone you feel would be suitable for this position and would fit in nicely with our team.
