Preschool Teacher Job 27 miles from La Puente
Venice Community Housing (VCH) supports and builds equitable and inclusive communities by providing affordable housing with supportive services, education, employment programs, and public policy advocacy that advances racial and economic justice. VCH is a community-based nonprofit organization engaged in a variety of housing and community development programs.
Venice has long been a highly diverse community; home to African Americans who were restricted from home ownership in other parts of L.A., low-income Latinos displaced by freeway development, starving artists, and senior citizens on fixed incomes.
In 1988, it became evident that an emerging housing crisis was gripping Los Angeles fueled - especially on the coast - by escalating rents and property values. The resulting gentrification was already threatening the rich diversity that made up the community. Just a year or two prior to this, eight committed Venice community members were gathering to discuss the emerging gentrification of their beloved community; the rising rents, increase of un-housed people, and their desire to start a movement to address the issues.
Searching for answers on the causes of these matters they created a group called “Neighbor to Neighbor” and decided to educate themselves by inviting experts from local agencies focused on social services, mental health, and those serving the un-housed and low-income residents. Asking what can we do? They soon realized the key to addressing these needs was affordable housing and supportive services.
With a commitment to building community, they focused not just on creating a housing development corporation, but a true community development organization; that is grounded in the belief that addressing the needs of the whole person is vital and necessary to preserving a diverse and inclusive community. The result of their vision was the creation of Venice Community Housing Corporation - now known as Venice Community Housing.
Today, VCH is a $10.7 million nonprofit with broad-based support serving Venice and other lower-income communities primarily in the western area of Los Angeles. VCH stands for justice, equity, inclusion and caring for one another, and is recognized as a champion for people who are without a home, are economically disadvantaged, or have otherwise faced historic discrimination. VCH provides low-income and permanent supportive housing, youth programming, resident and homeless services, and community-based solutions to meet those in need.
VCH owns and manages 346 units of affordable, supportive and interim housing. Its housing initiatives currently serve over 600 residents and boasts an impressive 99% retention rate among its residents, a testament to the effectiveness of their housing and support programs. The new co-Executive Director will be joining during a period of growth with an additional 450 units in pre-development/construction stages. In addition, VCH operates a comprehensive construction job training and transitional employment program for young adults and other community-serving programs.
One of the most unique aspects of VCH is its culture. VCH believes that as an organization, they must be intentional in their strategy, leadership, decision-making and partnerships to consider the impact on racial equity and accountability to those most impacted by systemic racism and other forms of oppression. It provides professional development opportunities focused on cultural sensitivity, equipping staff with the skills to navigate diverse work environments effectively and requires all staff, board, residents and program allies to continue to engage in learning and reflection through conversations which impact internal and external accountability and change. The organization's unwavering dedication to equity is also exemplified by their thorough and meticulous approach to pay equity.
VCH has experienced tremendous growth under the leadership of Executive Director Becky Dennison who joined VCH in 2016 and brought over twenty years of experience in non-profit management and organizational and community development. In 2024 VCH switched to a co-Executive Director model which has been very affective and applauded by the team and Board. The incoming Co-Executive Director will be a partner to Erika Lee, currently serving as one of the Co-Executive Directors. Erika has been in progressive roles with VCH for close to ten years and ascended to her current position in March of 2024.
VCH is now seeking a candidate to co-lead this diverse and successful organization, with a steadfast anti-criminalization, housing first, trauma-informed lens. The ideal candidate will embody an unwavering passion for mission, have strong financial management principles, and bring a hands-on leadership style that inspires and empowers teams to achieve transformative outcomes. With deep knowledge of Los Angeles', and/or other US metro cities', permanent supportive housing development landscape, this leader will foster strong relationships with community partners, stakeholders and residents alike.
VCH is often called upon to speak and act on behalf of racial, housing and economic justice issues and seeks a leader who will stand behind the issues and always answer the call. This is a phenomenal opportunity to have impact with a mission that is at the intersection of social justice, inclusiveness and equity.
