Job Description – Bilingual Program Coordinator

Organization Summary
The Unusual Suspects Theatre Company’s (USTC) mission is to mentor, educate, and enrich youth in under-resourced communities by creating collaborative original theatre. Our mission powers our vision of a world where all youth are given the opportunities and support they need to succeed and to be heard, valued, and respected. We strive to be a bridge that helps youth make positive life choices.

Founded in the wake of the 1992 Los Angeles uprising, USTC has grown from a small, volunteer-led youth intervention program into an award-winning leader in arts education, youth development, mentorship, and community building. After nearly three decades of service within disinvested and underrepresented communities, our work focuses on ensuring the equitable enrichment and development of Los Angeles County’s under-resourced youth and their communities. Our free, theatre-arts programs go beyond the reach of typical arts education workshops to offer personalized mentorship and a safe space for self-expression, empowering those we work with to identify and leverage their innate talents and overcome inequitable circumstances.

USTC is pursuing transformative action steps to center our communities in all aspects of our work and bring Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Access (DEIA) to the forefront of our operations and programs. For more information, visit: TheUnusualSuspects.org
