Community Development Coordinator
About the role
Are you passionate about building stronger, healthier communities? Do you thrive on connecting people, creating impact, and turning ideas into action?
At Windsor Essex Community Housing Corporation (CHC), we’re more than housing — we’re a community. We believe that when residents feel connected, supported, and empowered, everyone thrives.
We’re looking for a Community Development Coordinator who’s ready to roll up their sleeves and make a difference. In this hands-on role, you’ll help strengthen neighbourhoods through resident engagement, health promotion, and community wellness initiatives.
What You’ll Do
Bring residents together through creative events, outreach, and wellness programs that inspire belonging.
Support resident-led health initiatives — from nutrition and mental health workshops to fitness and preventative care programs.
Build relationships with local partners and agencies to ensure residents have access to the right supports at the right time.
Conduct community assessments, identify opportunities, and help shape neighbourhood renewal plans.
Champion community voices — helping residents lead, grow, and create change in their own neighbourhoods.
Who You Are
You’re a connector, a listener, and a doer. You care deeply about people and have the confidence to step into any room — or courtyard — and get things moving.
You bring:
A degree in Social Work or a related field
4+ years of experience in community development, outreach, or health promotion
Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills
The ability to balance multiple priorities and stay organized in a fast-paced environment
A valid Ontario G-class license and access to a vehicle
