Mariposa Community Health Center is recruiting a full-time Registered Dietician as part of its WIC Program team. The role of the RD is to provide nutrition counseling to high-risk clients, as well as serve as the lead for staff training and education materials. Given the population of Santa Cruz County, we prefer an RD who has bilingual English/Spanish skills. Mariposa’s WIC Program is proud of its quality customer service and excellent support of breastfeeding success. The RD will join Mariposa WIC’s team of 10 staff members housed in its own beautiful building on Mariposa’s Nogales Campus where the RD has a private office. Mariposa was the only Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in Arizona to receive the HRSA National Health Quality Leader Award last month and our Community Health Services Department was recognized as the 2014 Outstanding Rural Health Program by the National Rural Health Association. Mariposa offers incredible employee benefits, including full coverage of a Blue Cross Blue Shield health plan and payment of all health plan deductibles (wow). This is a brand new position, so you could be the first to make it yours! Did we mention that our area is about 15 degrees cooler than Phoenix, we enjoy some fall color and it is only four hours to the Gulf of Mexico? For more information, please contact Susan Kunz, WIC Director at skunz@mariposachc.net or (520) 761-2133, ext. 1351.  To apply, please visit mariposachc.net or call the Human Resources Department at (520) 281-1550.
