The Program Manager for the Kingdom Kids and Facility Manager plays a vital role in helping students unlock the life-changing power of a relationship with God. This leader will guide the vision, implementation, and growth of a dynamic initiative designed to equip neighborhood youth with the ability to hear about God and pursue Him with their life.
In this role, the Program Manager will lead the planning, execution, and evaluation of the Kingdom Kids Program, ensuring every aspect aligns with Youth for Christ's mission to transform lives and strengthen our community. Working closely with staff, community partners, and dedicated volunteers, this leader will help create an environment where students are encouraged, supported, and challenged to reach their full potential.
The Program Manager will oversee all curriculum and program-related components of Program. Through thoughtful leadership and collaboration, this role will help ensure that every child in the program gains not only stronger reading skills, but also the confidence and hope that comes with academic success.
Additionally as the Facility Manager oversees all building operations, maintenance, and building rentals at City Impact.
But make no mistake—this is more than a job. We are looking for someone with passion. Someone with courage. Someone who believes that investing in the lives of children can change families, neighborhoods, and generations.
At Youth for Christ, we want leaders who are willing to step into the work with bold faith and deep conviction—people who will pour themselves into students, rally volunteers, and pursue excellence because the mission matters. If you want comfortable routine, this probably isn’t the role for you. But if you want your work to matter… if you believe every child deserves the chance to read, grow, and flourish… and if you want to be part of something that ultimately points people to the Name above all names, then we invite you to join us.
