Build the skills for this role
No occupation or cert catalog was provided. Prioritize leave/FMLA process literacy, confidential case notes, and clear written updates for managers and staff.
Be ready to walk through a leave case from request to resolution, how you protect privacy, and how you handle incomplete paperwork under time pressure. Ask how CCH structures leave ownership between HR and program leaders amid housing expansion and staffing stress reported in news.
Strong fit if you want on-site Denver nonprofit work, steady case follow-through, and comfort with policy-heavy people support. Weaker fit if you need remote work or a quiet, low-turnover environment—coverage has flagged pay and retention concerns.
