Her PLAN AL Community Development Coordinator or Director
Her PLAN seeks an energetic and outcome-oriented Community Development Coordinator or Director, depending on experience, with a passion for rallying communities to care for moms and their children. This full‑time position will be located in Alabama and work within communities in Alabama.
Role Overview
In this role you will bring together community leaders at the local and state level to assess, connect, and grow support services that help women in need carry to term and parent. You will develop deep relationships through the Her Community model and strengthen the pro‑life safety net by identifying gaps in services and fostering collaboration among providers.
Seven Categories of Care
Care coordination and mentorship
Health and well‑being
Financial assistance, work or education
Material or legal support
Recovery and mental health
Prenatal diagnosis
Care for children
These categories form the lens through which the pro‑life safety net is assessed.

The Her PLAN Pathways Program offers trusted and tested models to fill those gaps, and you will help communities identify the best pathways for their community and plan their next steps.
