Being one of the first to use EPICS case management and Evidence Based practices, we take pride in leading the way with innovative solutions.
In this position, you will help your clients develop pro-social behaviors using core correctional practices. You'll use cognitive interventions and behavioral practices with clients to promote lasting behavior change. You’ll have the autonomy and discretion to manage your workload and schedule. If you’re looking for a strong team where you can develop and grow through training and development, you’ve found the right opportunity.
Some examples of evidence based practices that we use include:
Motivational Interviewing: You'll establish rapport with Justice Involved Individuals and enhance their motivation to succeed through collaborative communication, confronting issues in a non-threatening manner, and using positive and negative reinforcements.

Organization and Time Management: You will be responsible for organizing and prioritizing your own workload to meet strict deadlines. (This can be challenging in a setting where work tasks and priorities change frequently.) You will work independently and as part of a team, and you'll develop creative and innovative ideas to handle your caseload as efficiently as possible.

Full time
Are you a motivated community corrections professional or social counselor who is a force for positive change in a fast paced environment? Do you share our vision of community safety through positive change?
As a Parole and Probation Officer (PPO) with Multnomah County's Department of Community Justice, you can play a key role in creating a stronger, safer community. Being one of the first to use EPICS case management and Evidence Based practices, we take pride in leading the way with innovative solutions.
In this position, you will help your clients develop pro-social behaviors using core correctional practices. You'll use cognitive interventions and behavioral practices with clients to promote lasting behavior change. You’ll have the autonomy and discretion to manage your workload and schedule. If you’re looking for a strong team where you can develop and grow through training and development, you’ve found the right opportunity.
Some examples of evidence based practices that we use include:
Motivational Interviewing: You'll establish rapport with Justice Involved Individuals and enhance their motivation to succeed through collaborative communication, confronting issues in a non-threatening manner, and using positive and negative reinforcements. You'll identify each client's needs and risk factors, develop timelines to help them meet their goals, and implement action plans for clients and their families.
EPICS (Effective Practices in Community Supervision): You will be trained and use a research driven case management model specifically designed to address the highest criminogenic risk domains. EPICS includes a focus on the use of cognitive behavioral interventions.
Effective Communication: Your ability to communicate in a respectful manner and adapt your communication style for diverse audiences will be key to working effectively with clients, community partners and co-workers. Your writing skills and attention to detail will enable you to prepare accurate, well-written reports and documents for the courts, treatment agencies and other stakeholders, often within tight timelines. All candidates must be able to communicate and interact effectively and professionally with people from diverse backgrounds.
Investigation and Public Safety Work: You will conduct field investigations, adhering to specific protocols and standards, to unco v er facts that are often hidden, unique or complex. You will utilize your crisis prevention, intervention and de-escalation skills to keep the community, your clients and yourself safe.
Organization and Time Management: You will be responsible for organizing and prioritizing your own workload to meet strict deadlines. (This can be challenging in a setting where work tasks and priorities change frequently.) You will work independently and as part of a team, and you'll develop creative and innovative ideas to handle your caseload as efficiently as possible.
We encourage bilingual applicants to apply. Some positions require oral and written fluency in English and a second language.
The Department of Community Justice is looking for Criminal Justice professionals who can demonstrate expertise in the following areas:
Strategic Planning / Leadership: You will develop goals and direction based on the overall county/department mission and vision to increase community safety through positive change.
Results Through People: You will help achieve results through the contribution of others by motivating and inspiring growth and productivity.
Relationships and Community: You will build positive and sustainable relationships with a range of key internal and external stakeholders.
Leading Cross-Culturally: You will foster an inclusive workplace where diversity and individual differences are valued and leveraged to achieve the vision, mission, and goals of the organization.
Team Building: You will develop, inspire, and foster employees to work collaboratively.
Organizational Savviness: You will demonstrate understanding and good judgment of organizational culture and interpersonal relationships, with both internal and external groups, to identify opportunities of mutual interest and benefit.
Delivery: You will ensure services are provided by quality processes through monitoring and understanding.
Outcomes: You achieve quality outcomes for the individual, the organization, and the county.
Personal Development: You will strive for an honest and accurate assessment of oneself and demonstrate willingness for continuous improvement.

Duties
What makes this role unique?
The Climate Commitment Act Implementation Group is leading the design and implementation of Washington’s cap-and-invest program, which employs market mechanisms to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in a cost-effective manner. As part of the cap-and-invest program, businesses and entities will be required to obtain allowances tied to their emissions, which can be bought, sold, and traded. This market began in January 2023, the first auction was held in February 2023, and the proceeds will be invested in initiatives to decarbonize transportation and other sectors of the economy, promote clean energy, and advance equity and environmental justice. The Auctions and Market section helps bring companies into the cap-and-invest program, facilitates allowance auctions and trading, and safeguards the Cap-and-Invest Program’s integrity through ongoing market surveillance. In this position as a senior market monitor, you will be responsible for developing and implementing strategies to surveil the Cap-and-Invest Program. The position safeguards the auctions and the market program, which is a top priority of both the agency, Legislature and Governor’s Office. What you will do:
Contribute to analysis of entity behavior within the cap-and-invest program with a focus on activities that change the Washington allowance market and related commodities and futures markets.
Support potential market-related linkage work. In the event of linkage, work on the coordination of market-monitoring activities with linked program(s).
Maintain an up-to-date understanding of finance, econometrics, and/or related fields. Apply concepts from these fields in your market monitoring work.
Provide support to other CCA Implementation Group staff as entities join the cap-and-invest market, such as providing analysis of corporate association groups that allow entities to join the market.
Mentor, cross-train, and serve as strong positive example to other auctions and market unit staff.
Qualifications
The goal class for this position is Financial Examiner 4 (FE4) . We will consider applicants who meet the requirements for the FE3 and FE4 levels. If the finalist meets the requirements for the FE3, they will be hired in at that level and placed into a training program to become an FE4 within a specified period of time. Required Qualifications: Years of required experience indicated below are full-time equivalent years. Full-time equivalent experience means that any experience where working hours were less than 40 hours per week will be prorated in order to meet the equivalency of full-time. We would calculate this by looking at the total hours worked per week, divide this by 40, and then multiply by the total number of months worked. Examples of the proration calculations are:
30 hours worked per week for 20 months: (30/40) x 20 months = 15 months full-time equivalent
20 hours worked per week for 12 months: (20/40) x 12 months = 6 months full-time equivalent
Experience for both required and desired qualifications can be gained through various combinations of formal professional employment, education, and volunteer experience.

In this role, you will develop and contribute to legal strategies in key areas relevant to our mission of preventing our democracy from declining toward a more authoritarian form of government.

Counsel also have opportunities to draw on our expert and advisory networks for guidance and support and to supervise and mentor law students.

We anticipate that incoming Counsel will be initially assigned to work in one of the following areas (though assignments may shift over time as the mission demands): combating disinformation, protecting free and fair elections, or advancing electoral system reforms. Protect Democracy recognizes that there is strength in diversity, and strongly encourages candidates from diverse backgrounds and from across the political and ideological spectrum to apply. Counsel can work from any location in the United States.
We expect to hire multiple candidates for this role, and as a result, we do not expect that any one candidate will have all of the ideal criteria listed below. If you think you’d be a stellar fit and could grow into the role, we want to hear from you.

Research and devise innovative legal arguments and potential litigation approaches, and help build our expertise as thought leaders on legal issues within the scope of our mission.
Develop ideas for litigation, policy reform, and other integrated advocacy projects consistent with our mission.
Work with the communications team to draft editorials and opinion pieces and develop communication strategies to build support for legal and advocacy strategies.
Work alongside policy advocates to develop and advance legislative and other advocacy proposals.
Job requirements
The ideal candidate brings:
A passionate commitment to the preservation of democratic norms and institutions, and an understanding that our democracy has never fully represented communities of color.
An embrace of a cross-ideological and nonpartisan approach to protecting our democracy.

Ability to track, prioritize, and, where necessary, triage work in order to use time in the most efficient and productive way.
Comfort with an open and transparent culture that values constant feedback up, down and sideways.
Collaborative orientation, including willingness to take on tasks big or small as needed to advance our mission, and ability to work well with people with diverse backgrounds and to manage up, down, and sideways.
Comfort working in a growing organization, proactively working to build the organization and figure out what’s needed to move your work forward.
