As an employee of USC, you will be a part of a world-class research university and a member of the "Trojan Family," which is comprised of the faculty, students and staff that make the university what it is. USC's School of Social Work is seeking a Project Manager to join its team. The Project Manager assists a principal investigator in managing all phases of a large project grant and any subcontracts. Provides leadership and direction for day-to-day project operations and administrative activities. Participates in the planning, design and development of project protocols, data acquisition and management, analysis and reporting of study results. Job Accountabilities: ________________________________________ The project manager will be involved in all aspects of coordinating and supervising the goals and objectives of this project. In addition to the generic USC job description for Program Manager, the candidate will be involved in supervising, organizing, and participating in a project that supports military students in schools. The following is an abstract of the work and products that will be produced over the next 4 years. Military students face challenges due to transitions and deployments. Recent studies have shown that supportive schools shield students from many effects of depression, despair, alienation, and school failure. Civilian school personnel need training to address school climate issues that would ease these challenges. Building Capacity to Create Highly Supportive Military-Connected School Districts: The Integration of Local School Data, Community Supports, Evidence-based Programs, and Empowerment Strategies to Promote Positive Social and Academic Climates is based on a model implemented successfully throughout Israel. The initiative is a partnership between eight military-connected districts (approximately 117,000 students, 10.1% of whom are military) and the University of Southern California (USC). It will identify and provide appropriate supports for military students by (1) creating a clearinghouse of evidence-based best practices (EBP), (2) helping stakeholders, select the most appropriate EPBs, and (3) assisting the districts in their implementation. Support includes 72,000 contact hours from a cadre of Master of Social Work interns and their mentors. USC has augmented the California Healthy Kids Survey with a Military Module that will be disseminated throughout California. Five resource manuals to support implementation will be developed and disseminated through the Oxford University Press. Sustained professional development will occur. As inkind contributions, USC will create interactive resource manuals based on the print versions and provide online modules of professional development that will be available for future training. USC will develop a degree-bearing program in social work that directly supports military-connected schools/ communities. USC's intent is to replicate this model throughout California and the nation. Performs other related duties as assigned or requested. The University reserves the right to add or change duties at any time. The University of Southern California values diversity and is committed to equal opportunity in employment.
