All Housing Navigators must meet minimum qualification standards. The minimum qualifications for housing navigators are a bachelor’s degree in business administration, social work, psychology, sociology, counseling, or related service/science disciplines and one (1) year of experience involving engagement with landlords or property managers, in real estate, or conducting appropriate connections of individuals, especially those experiencing homelessness, to housing services. Knowledge of housing resources, subsidy programs and the Continuum of Care for individuals experiencing homeless, as well as experience working with landlords and property managers is preferred. Where necessary and appropriate, a Housing Navigator without a bachelor’s degree can meet minimum qualifications by substituting at least three (3) years of work experience in a social service and/or human service field, business administration, or experience involving engagement with landlords or property managers, in real estate, or conducting appropriate connections of individuals, especially those experiencing homelessness, to housing services. Certification and/or licensure in a relevant discipline (e.g., certified addictions counselor) may also substitute for educational requirements. Individuals with lived experience are encouraged to apply.
