Last year, I joined the board of Council For Relationships, a Philadelphia-based non-profit that provides mental health services to anyone regardless of their ability to pay. They serve everyone from the homeless and at-risk youth, the LGBTQ community, training for clergy, CEOs and Executives and probably even someone you know.
It has been an honor to work with this organization for about a year now. It’s among the most satisfying work I do.
Much of what I help with is related to Marketing this organization. They are currently looking for a Marketing Coordinator. I’m posting the job description below. If you are interested, please email Rita, here.
