What We're Looking For

Required:

  • 10+ years of research experience (academic, nonprofit, policy, or community settings)
  • Experience managing or coordinating research teams
  • Strong understanding of research methods and design
  • Good communication and organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently and make sound judgments
  • Reliable and able to commit 8-10 hours weekly

Preferred:

  • Background in education, youth mental health, or related areas
  • Experience in nonprofit or volunteer environments
  • Advanced degree in a relevant field

What We Offer

  • Opportunity to lead meaningful research that addresses real gaps in mental health and education
  • Flexible remote work with a committed, mission-driven team
  • Letter of reference and certificate of participation
  • The satisfaction of contributing your skills to work that matters
