The Sunnyside Shower Project (SSP) offers a safe space for houseless individuals who seek access to hygiene.

The position would be ideal for someone who wants to get more involved locally and help shape this vital project that means so much to so many in the community. The Project Director will work closely with the Volunteer Coordinator / Site Manager, the Leadership / Steering Committee, and also the Sunnyside Neighborhood Association (SNA) and their fiscal sponsor, Southeast Uplift.

Formalize and streamline connections that we’ve established with other homeless service organizations (Hygiene4All, NW Pilot Project, Portland Street Medicine, Street Roots, Recovery Works NW, etc), helping us better serve as a stepping stone to services like medical and mental health care and housing.

Improve communications and outreach through our website, social media, and other channels.

Qualifications :

The ideal candidate will have experience in nonprofit / mutual aid work, be an excellent and clear communicator, and have a commitment and passion to serving the houseless community.
