Full Job Description

ACCT Philly recognizes that even the best shelter experience is not preferred for any animal. We also recognize that our infrastructure is ill-suited to meet the needs of the 18,000 animals we care for each year. Through the recruitment, support, and coordination of a team of volunteer foster parents, the Foster Coordinator helps mitigate these challenges, improve the experience of animals in our care, and enhance opportunities for lifesaving. ACCT Philly’s foster parents enable thousands of animals each year to be cared for offsite, whether for a day or for much longer, while recovering from medical conditions, resolving shelter-induced behavior concerns, or simply waiting for a home. The Foster Coordinator oversees this cohort of individuals, ensuring a clear, coordinated effort that maximizes the impact of our foster homes as a resource.

● Act as point person for fosters; receive, respond to, and forward inquiries as appropriate ● Investigate and respond to concerns from or about fosters

● Promote a collaborative, community approach by providing opportunities for foster recognition and thanks, social connection, and broader engagement

● Conduct an annual review of foster data, verifying that appropriate waivers, applications, and other forms are on file and current

● Maintain accurate foster files, removing inactive fosters and re-engaging where possible ● Maintain accurate foster animal inventories, following up on animals with long foster lengths of stay and closing out records where appropriate

● In conjunction with management, identify annual goals which exceed the previous year’s and develop strategies to meet them

● Respond to public-facing foster email account

● Other dues as assigned by management
