Women’s House Manager

JUMPSTART OHIO is a faith-based reentry program that begins during incarceration. Upon graduation from our inside program, we assist released graduates with job opportunities, housing referrals, and assistance to overcome other obstacles faced by returning citizens.
In partnership with CityLink Center, JUMPSTART now has a transitional house available in Cincinnati. The home will accommodate a total of eight biological women. While some will come directly from incarceration (after graduating from our inside program), others may come through referrals from our partner agencies.
We are seeking a Women’s House Manager who will live on-site in provided housing and be a daily support to residents and help them navigate challenges as they begin their new lives post incarceration. Please review below and contact us if you feel you would be a good fit for this position.
