San Francisco Community Land Trust Seeks Organizational Director - Spring 2008

About the San Francisco Community Land Trust:

The San Francisco Community Land Trust (SFCLT) is a member-based nonprofit organization whose mission is to create permanently affordable, resident controlled housing for low- and moderate-income people in San Francisco through community ownership of the land. The organization works in partnership with residents, community groups, and local government to preserve multifamily housing by converting properties from rental units into resident-owned, limited-equity housing cooperatives that are controlled by the residents, while the land is owned by SFCLT to ensure affordability in perpetuity. To ensure sustainability SFCLT provides education and technical assistance to residents and members on the CLT model, Coop model and self-governance. SFCLT is currently working on its first rehabilitation and coop conversion project at 53 Columbus Avenue in Chinatown. Established in 2002 and staffed in 2007, SFCLT operates as a mostly voluntary organization with a very active Board of Directors and volunteer committees: Project Committee, Outreach Committee, and Fundraising Committee. SFCLT seeks to hire an Organizational Director to build and lead the organization during this critical time of growth.
