application Deadline:
08/31/2023
Agency:
Oregon Health Authority
Salary Range:
2823-3546 per month
Interfaith Chaplain Resident (CPE Residency Program) SR12
Job Description:
The Oregon State Hospital currently has multiple openings for our 12-month, accredited Clinical Pastoral (CPE) Residency Program.
If you are a Religious or Spiritual Leader seeking to enhance your ability to minister to others, our program is designed to do just that. This unique opportunity runs from August 14, 2023 until August 14, 2024 and successful applicants will receive salary and benefits. This is a limited duration program. The Oregon State Hospital does not charge tuition for units of CPE and the cost for any educational supplies will be less than $100/unit.
What is CPE?
Clinical Pastoral Education is interfaith professional education for ministry. It brings theological students and ministers of all religious/spiritual/humanist traditions (pastors, priests, rabbis, imams and others) into supervised encounter with persons in crisis. Out of an intense involvement with persons in need, as well as the feedback from peers and teachers, students develop new awareness of themselves and the people to whom they minister. From theological/philosophical reflection on specific human situations, they gain a new understanding of ministry. Within the interdisciplinary team process of helping persons, they develop skills in interpersonal and interprofessional relationships.
What is Spiritual/Pastoral Care?
Just as the theory and philosophy behind modern pastoral care are not dependent on any one set of beliefs or traditions, spiritual/pastoral care itself is guided by a broad framework. This involves personal support and outreach and is rooted in a practice of relating with the inner world of individuals from all walks of life.

About KIND:
Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) is a global leader in the protection of unaccompanied refugee and migrant children. Launched in 2008, KIND champions a world in which every child’s rights and well-being are protected throughout their journey to safety. Since 2008, KIND has accepted over 23,000 referrals of children seeking legal representation in their immigration proceedings. KIND has welcomed more than 41,000 attendees to training since its founding, cultivating partnerships with over 700 law firms, corporate legal departments, law schools, and bar associations across the country.
KIND’s social services program ensures that migrant and refugee children – who have often endured trauma – receive counseling, educational support, medical care, and other comprehensive services.
To address the root causes of child migration from Central America and strengthen the protection of unaccompanied children, KIND advocates for policy changes and educates lawmakers, the media, and the broader public on the conditions that drive these children to flee their home countries. KIND supports children returning to their home countries by connecting them to essential support services and sponsors gender-based violence prevention programs in Central America to protect children in countries of origin and transit.

We plan to hire multiple Operations Associates, and will determine portfolios based on candidates’ experience, interest, skills, and organizational need. We do not expect that any one candidate will have all of the experiences or take on all the responsibilities listed below. Most of our Operations Associate positions are based in Washington, DC, but we will consider fully remote candidates for our knowledge management and systems portfolios.
The Operations Associates will:
Collaborate with colleagues to support technical, compliance, facilities, logistics, security, knowledge management, and finance workstreams.
Independently identify ways to build and improve on Protect Democracy’s operational framework by examining needs, assessing possible solutions, and making concise, realistic recommendations.
Help ensure Protect Democracy’s legal, fiscal, and administrative compliance, which includes collecting and managing large amounts of data.
Provide as-needed technological, security, and logistical support to the entire Protect Democracy team.
Maintain knowledge management systems for Protect Democracy’s work, facilitating the broader team’s visibility across the organization’s work.
Work across teams on special projects, including annual strategic planning, organization-wide meetings, and the implementation of new tools or trainings.
Assist with the administration of several benefit programs, including FSAs, 401k, health care, and more.
Act as an integral part of the onboarding experience for new staff members.
Contribute to the overall development of Protect Democracy across all areas and facets of the organization, including impact strategy and organizational culture.
The ideal candidate brings:
Passion for protecting and improving our democracy.
Rigorous attention to detail and the highest standards for excellence in execution.
Strong writing, research, and communication skills.
Proven experience tracking, prioritizing, and balancing a diverse set of responsibilities with competing deadlines.
Flexibility and comfort working in a fast-paced environment and pivoting to solutions as the organization grows.
Enthusiasm for team collaboration and working with people with diverse backgrounds and characteristics, and openness to a diversity of ideas and perspectives.
Growth mindset and comfort giving and receiving feedback up, down and sideways.
Pluses, but not requirements:
Background in IT, cybersecurity, physical security, logistics, or finance.
Compensation
The starting salary range for this role is $58,916 to $64,528, commensurate with the candidate’s relevant experience, capabilities and skills and in alignment with internal equity.
