Chief Operating Officer THE COVE- HEART OF TEXAS, INC. JOB PROFILE Job Title: Chief Operations Officer FLSA Status: Exempt/Salary Reports To: Chief Executive Officer Location: Waco, TX Position Type: Regular, Full-Time (FTE) Drafted: May 2021 The Cove: The Cove is a nurturing drop-in center for high-school aged youth in the Heart of Texas experiencing homelessness. The Cove provides supportive services in a trauma-informed, culturally competent environment, with a focus on supporting youth through high school graduation. Unaccompanied homeless youth (UHY) are some of Waco's most vulnerable citizens. Young people experiencing housing instability have been shown to be more prone to sexual and emotional abuse, human trafficking, depression, suicide, and substance abuse. However, when young people receive the supports they need, they can graduate high school and face adulthood with the tools they need for self-sufficiency. In the 2020 - 2021 school year, 237 Waco ISD high school students had no place to call home, and 78 were enrolled in school as unaccompanied, meaning they were experiencing homelessness by themselves, not in the care of a parent or legal guardian.
