Position Summary

United Way of Northeastern Minnesota (UWNEMN) is seeking a dedicated, community-driven professional to serve as the Communities That Care (CTC) Coordinator. This position plays a pivotal role in advancing upstream prevention efforts supporting youth and families in Hibbing and surrounding communities.

The CTC Coordinator will be responsible for facilitating, organizing, and documenting the implementation of the CTC prevention system – a proven, data-driven approach to reducing youth risk behaviors and promoting well-being. The ideal candidate is a relationship-builder, skilled communicator, and systems thinker who understands the power of prevention and the importance of centering community voice.

This role requires the ability to work across sectors – engaging schools, public health, mental health providers, law enforcement, local government, nonprofits, parents, and youth – to build a shared vision and coordinated action plan. By supporting the work of the Community Board and collaborating closely with CTC Coaches, the Coordinator helps align efforts, interrupt harmful cycles before they begin, and strengthen long-term systems of support that foster resilience and well-being in youth and families.

The CTC Coordinator will report directly to UWNEMN’s Community Impact Director and maintain regular communication with internal staff, board leadership, and external partners to ensure fidelity to the CTC model, alignment with grant objectives, and measurable community impact.
