Join us! Emergency Shelter Staff Opportunities:

The Charter House Coalition, Addison County's only 24-hour emergency homeless shelter. is looking to hire 1-2 persons to join our amazing team of shelter staff. The primary responsibility of this compassionate group is to maintain a safe and consistent environment for our guests and to help build a trusting rapport with those we serve, not only through our shelter, but also through our community food program and social services, which involve many within our greater community.

Shelter staff members oversee our day-to-day programs. This may include monitoring guest activity, completing wellness checks, guiding cleaning routines, schedules, and involvement with enrichment activities. This is a direct services role that concentrates on ensuring the safety, well-being, and harmony within the house. Light on administrative tasks and perfect for those that prefer using their people skills. This is not a case management role.

Experience working or volunteering at an emergency shelter or in a similar setting is appreciated but not required. Skills specific to serving individuals who are houseless, navigating substance use, addiction recovery, mental illness, aging and or those that are differently abled, are encouraged to apply. Training will be provided. Applicants should be physically able to lift to 40lbs and be able to use stairs.

Full, part-time and per diem opportunities with day, evening and awake overnight shifts are available. Starting pay is $17-$19/hour depending on experience. Benefits for all include accrued PTO and a gym membership. Full time staff, working 40 hours weekly, are eligible for our medical benefits package.

Please send resume and letter of interest to [email protected]. No phone calls please.

Fall Open House Cancelled!
It is out of extreme precaution and based on the increased number of COVID cases being reported in Addison County, and in order to keep our guests, staff and community safe, that we regretfully have decided to cancel our open house that was scheduled for Sat, Oct 29th from 1-3pm. Please be on the lookout for a virtual tour which we are creating in place of the in-person option. We will try again for 2023! Be well, stay safe everyone!

Taking some time to be mindful that hard times don’t mean there’s no room for a little fun! Happy Halloweek!

On October 1st four lucky raffle winners received the news that they had won highly prized works of art in a fundraising raffle for the benefit of the Charter House Coalition’s homeless shelter and community meals program in Middlebury. The raffle raised over $3,000 for the Charter House mission and would have been impossible without the incredible contributions from Caleb Kenna, Cristine Kossow, TJ Cunningham and Treeline Terrains.
