Job Description:

Off the Street Club: "Founded in 1900, Off The Street Club is Chicago’s oldest inner-city youth program for boys and girls. Against the backdrop of West Garfield Park, where violence, gangs, and drugs are a daily threat, we offer hope." The Club seeks a dynamic Executive Director (ED) to steward the organization through its next stage of growth, after the retirement of Arnett Morris. Balancing the rich history of the Club with a forward-looking vision, the leader will ensure that the Club remains a beacon of hope within the community. Reporting to the Board of Directors, the ED will build upon existing processes and procedures to further professionalize the organization and move the Club forward to new heights while preserving its rich history and legacy. Off The Street Club (OTSC or “the Club”) is Chicago’s oldest boys and girls club, serving young people in the West Garfield Park neighborhood, one of the city’s most challenged and under-resourced communities. For 125 years, OTSC has been a safe, steady, and unwavering presence for children growing up amid poverty, gang activity, and limited access to opportunity. The Club’s long history is rooted in deep community trust and generational impact. To learn more, please visit: https://www.offthestreetclub.com/ .
