This position has the opportunity to be based at any of our three campuses located in Fort Collins, CO (Larimer Campus), Longmont, CO (Boulder County Campus), or Westminster, CO (Westminster Campus).
Who We Are With three campuses along Colorado’s Front Range, FRCC is the state’s largest community college. We enroll close to 28,000 students annually from our diverse service area, which offers a variety of cultural and recreational activities.

Rocky Mountain Immigrant Advocacy Network (RMIAN) provides free immigration legal services and social services to individuals in immigration detention and to children and their families throughout Colorado. RMIAN believes that justice for immigrants means justice for all.
Through the Social Service Project, RMIAN is one of few immigration legal services organizations in the country to offer integrated social service support. Founded and staffed by masters-level social workers, the Social Service Project assists particularly vulnerable detained adult immigrants, including people determined by the immigration court to be mentally incompetent to represent themselves; unaccompanied immigrant youth recently released from the custody of the Office of Refugee and Resettlement; and other youth and families who would benefit from expert guidance in navigating challenging new social structures.
RMIAN’s social workers provide wrap-around support, including help dealing with the stress of detention, healthcare advocacy, support with aspects of legal case preparation, and planning for needed services upon clients’ release from detention. For non-detained youth and their family members, social workers provide therapeutic support, connection to mental health treatment, medical care, public benefits, and other assistance, as well as ongoing support throughout clients’ legal cases.
In addition to direct client services, RMIAN’s social workers collaborate with local and national partners to educate legal and social service providers, and advocate for positive systemic change for immigrant members of our community.
Position Overview
We are seeking the right person to lead the next chapter of the Social Service Project’s vital services during a period of transition , and to manage and support a strong team of three masters-level social workers. The Director of Social Work will direct program strategy; supervise members of the team; oversee day-to-day operations, including grant management, evaluation and reporting; liaise with community partners and funders; carry a very limited caseload; and participate on RMIAN’s Leadership Team to carry out the organization’s mission and strategic priorities.

Strategic thinking and thought leadership: The ideal candidate has some experience zooming out from day-to-day case management to see patterns and systems issues, and is creative in imagining ways to address structural problems, especially in collaboration with partners. This is someone who knows how to foster relationships with allies across the region to accomplish more together.

Latin America is home to 40% of the world’s species, a third of its freshwater, a quarter of its forests and 25% of arable land. Its forests are essential to the health of our warming planet, and its lands provide 16% of the world’s food and agriculture exports. Functional ecosystems are the engine of Latin America´s economic growth and play a pivotal role in meeting global demand for food, water and energy. Simply put, there is no place more important for plant and animal diversity, climate regulation and the global economy than Latin America. But Latin America is at a turning point. Climate change, biodiversity loss, alarming deforestation and over exploitation of oceans and watersheds are straining these critical natural systems. This is why The Nature Conservancy is driving systems innovation strategies to mainstream the role of nature in socio-economic sustainable development for the region. Our work in Latin America is projected to significantly contribute to TNC’s 2030 overall goals: they anticipate meeting 50% of TNC’s overall climate goal, 22% of the lands goal, and 25% of the freshwater rivers goal.
The Nature Conservancy works in 9 countries across Latin America.

Our science shows us that this decade (2020-2030) offers a window of profound opportunity to change course and achieve a more sustainable future for people and nature.

Job Description
River Sustainability Director, Cahaba River Society
Birmingham, AL
Starting Salary Range $48,000- $55,000
Application Due September 8, 2023
Position Summary:
The Cahaba River Society’s River Sustainability Director leads policy advocacy to protect and restore water quality, freshwater biodiversity, and drinking water sources for Birmingham and central Alabama communities. The position supports communities to improve best practices in stormwater and green infrastructure design and strengthen water resource policies, regulations, management and compliance, to reduce urban impacts such as pollution and flooding, improve climate resilience, promote water equity, and increase healthy greenspaces and river access opportunities for all.
The River Sustainability Director serves as a resource to local government officials, citizens, businesses, development professionals, and partner organizations, leading with collaboration and education, relying on river science, and advancing values of equity, diversity and inclusion.
About Cahaba River Society and our river:
Cahaba River Society (CRS) leads our community to restore and protect the Cahaba River watershed and its rich diversity of life. The diverse lives depending on the Cahaba include the people of Birmingham and central Alabama as well as the River’s globally significant biodiversity of freshwater wildlife. The Cahaba, the heart of “America’s Amazon,” has more fish species per mile than any other river in North America, a similar rich diversity of other river life, and is a spectacular, natural recreational resource.
Because our river is a major source of the Birmingham area’s drinking water, our service area - the “peopleshed” of those whose lives are affected by the River - is larger than the watershed, including Jefferson, Shelby, Bibb, Perry and Dallas County, stretching from Birmingham to Alabama’s rural Black Belt region.
Through collaboration, river restoration advocacy, and bringing people to the River for hands-on education, guided recreational opportunities, the arts, and volunteer stewardship projects, CRS has been building community support and making a lasting positive impact on the health of this valuable resource for 35 years. Learn more about the full range of our goals, partners, programs and impact at www.cahabariversociety.org .
Responsibilities:
Lead CRS strategy to promote Green Infrastructure and Low Impact Development approaches in development. Pursue policy and regulatory advocacy, best practices education, and watershed planning to reduce urban stormwater impacts, the leading cause of damage to Cahaba water quality, water supply, and habitat.
Collaborate with partners and stakeholders to identify opportunities and develop plans for stormwater retrofit projects that will reduce flooding and pollution impacts to the River and enhance community greenspace.
Proactively promote and respond to policy and regulatory opportunities from government agencies on water quality issues, stormwater management practices, water and wastewater infrastructure, land use and development practices, and other policies to restore the Cahaba River.
Evaluate significant development proposals and collaborate with developers, local government officials, and citizens to promote best practices to protect the ecological health of the Cahaba River, mitigate impacts to aquatic wildlife, and provide recreation access and habitat restoration.
Assure that considerations of equity, diversity and inclusion are advanced by CRS policies, recommendations, and decisions and guide our collaboration with partners, where we work, and who we serve.
Assure that CRS policies, recommendations and decisions are firmly seated in the best available science. Communicate river science to decision-makers and the public in ways that are engaging and inform policies and practices.
Respond to pollution events in partnership with riverkeepers by working with responsible parties and empowering citizens to address them.
Communicate with the public and media and give presentations before decision-makers (for example, city councils, county commissions, agency staff, development professionals) and civic groups to build understanding and support for CRS’ vision and strategies.
Supporting Functions:
Support other program areas in team with the staff, including youth and adult education and recreation outings on the River, volunteer habitat restoration, fundraising, and events.
Staff and Board relationships:
The River Sustainability Director is supervised by and works collaboratively with the Executive Director. CRS staff members work closely with members of the CRS Board of Directors in their areas of expertise. This position staffs committees of the Board of Directors, as lead staff for Policy and Science Committees, and also participates in Stewardship and Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committees.

Qualifications:
Undergraduate degree and 3 years of experience in fields related to environmental management/science/policy/law, environmental engineering, sustainable development, urban planning, landscape architecture, political science, natural resource management, or field biology is required. Advanced degree in one of these fields is desirable.
Strengths in strategic program development, collaboration, and self-directed work are essential.
Skills in research and in public speaking and written communications that are clear, visionary, convincing, and pitched for a range of audiences are essential.
A familiarity with the natural history of the Cahaba River, its aquatic wildlife, and urban impacts to freshwater systems is desirable.
Experience in local, state and federal government regulatory processes and governmental relations is desirable.
Experience with GIS is desirable.
Part of the fun of this job is occasional time spent on the River, assessing river habitat, investigating pollution sources, and participating in educational, recreational, and stewardship outings. Capabilities to participate in canoe trips together with other staff, or interest and ability to learn, is desirable.
Salary and Benefits:
Starting Salary Range $48,000- $55,000. Salary is negotiable based on qualifications. CRS pays full cost of single-rate health insurance (currently $5.9k value), or this amount can be applied to family rate. We offer low cost dental, vision, disability, and life insurance and a 403B retirement investment / matching program. Flexible work hours, hybrid office/home work, generous vacation and leave policies. We invest in our team by funding professional development and training.
