Shelter Advocate - RCWC and The Creek

Catholic Charities of Southern Minnesota has the following positions available in the Rochester area:

• Shelter Advocate - Exit position at the Rochester Community Warming Center (RCWC)
• Shelter Advocate - Shifts are at both the RCWC and the Creek, a transitional shelter program

The RCWC is a low-barrier emergency shelter for adults, 18 and older, experiencing homelessness. Individuals who stay at the RCWC have a safe and warm place to sleep, access to a hot meal & drink, showers, and laundry.

The Creek is a transitional program that we partner with Olmsted County's Housing Stability Team. At the Creek, guests work with Catholic Charities staff on goals and tasks to help secure stable housing and receive case management from an Olmsted County social worker.

Shelter advocates are key to helping our guests feel welcomed and valued. Successful shelter advocates have a good sense of personal and professional boundaries, the ability to de-escalate situations, multi-task, and thrive in a fast-paced environment all while serving our guests in a non-judgmental manner that affirms their human dignity.
