The Fred Hutch Cancer Center (Fred Hutch)/University of Washington (UW)/Seattle Children's Cancer Consortium (Consortium) is a research collaboration comprising Fred Hutch and its strong collaborators, the UW and Seattle Children's. The Consortium is recognized as a National Cancer Institute (NCI) designated Comprehensive Cancer Center through its dedication to developing research programs, faculty, and facilities that will lead to better approaches to prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer.
The Office of Community Outreach and Engagement (OCOE) is an integral component of the Consortium. It is housed at Fred Hutch in Seattle with offices in Sunnyside and Spokane. The mission of the OCOE is better outcomes for everybody through promoting health equity throughout the cancer care and research continuum. Using a qualitative and quantitative data-driven approach, the OCOE centers authentic engagement, community-based participatory research (CBPR), and education driven by community need. The OCOE works in partnership with local Community Action Boards and an Internal Advisory Council of leaders and faculty from the Consortium.
The OCOE is seeking a Community Health Educator II for Rural Populations who shares our mission to achieve cancer health equity by using bidirectional, anti-racist, community-engaged approaches in outreach, programming, and research. The position is based at the Fred Hutch office in Seattle and works collaboratively with a team and community partners across Washington State.
The Community Health Educator (CHE) works in community-based partnerships to implement evidence-informed practices to address the cancer burden in our WA State catchment area. The CHE is a critical link between Consortium staff and WA State communities. This role specifically focuses on rural populations, which may include underrepresented populations including racially and ethnically diverse communities. The CHE must have a thorough understanding of and experience working with diverse populations experiencing health inequities. The CHE conducts community outreach and engagement, program implementation and health education using appropriate strategies and methods to improve cancer and related disease outcomes for Washingtonians. Hybrid or fully remote work options are available for staff living outside of King, Snohomish, or Pierce counties.
Most Fred Hutch jobs require some on-campus work. However, there may be flexibility for certain positions. Please check with the recruiter if you are an out-of-state applicant interested only in working outside of the Seattle area.
