Recently Added! Assistant Coordinator Job Description

Management of a HIPPY program is done by a full-time (or full-time equivalent) professional coordinator, who is responsible for a maximum of 180 children. Additional support will be needed if implementing more than 3 years (see Administrative Checklist Item 3). As a site grows in complexity or number of families served, many agencies look to hiring an assistant coordinator, sometimes called a lead home visitor (this role may have a different job title, established by an agency’s human resources department).

This new document, developed by HIPPY US in collaboration with the HIPPY State Offices uses the terms lead home visitor and assistant coordinator interchangeably and provides guidance and templates that can be used to establish and supervise this position. To find a job description for the coordinator position, review the HIPPY US Start-up Guide beginning on page 13.

If you have any questions about this position, contact your State Office, or Carla Mowell at HUS if you’re an Independent Site.
