Job Description
Camp Korey is more than a camp. It's a place where kids with life-altering medical conditions can just be kids, entirely free of charge. We believe that all children should be able to experience both the joys of childhood and the profound, life-changing impact of camp. Every year, thousands of campers and family members gather in a community of people with shared experiences to sing, dance, laugh, grow, and discover their potential in a medically safe and adaptable environment. Here, campers with 90+ diagnoses can take a true break from being "patients" and rediscover the joy of being a kid. Our team of year-round and seasonal staff work together to make these joys and impacts a reality. We value the background, skills, and lived experiences of our team in bringing diverse representation to our organization. Every day, we make a difference in families' lives. Are you ready to join as a Cabin-Life Coordinator ? In this role, you'll serve as a year-round leader focused on camper and family experience, accommodations, housing, behavioral support, seasonal staffing, cabin culture, and volunteer integration. You'll partner closely with the Admissions Coordinator, Volunteer Manager, Medical Team, Program Coordinator, and Camp Director to create safe, inclusive, and meaningful experiences for campers, families, volunteers, and staff throughout the year.
