Feedback & Innovation Associate Location: Remote, with ability to travel to Boston or Philadelphia offices on a quarterly basis About Compass Compass is an innovative, mission-driven organization that supports families with low incomes to save for their future and access greater economic opportunity. We believe in our clients and in their ability to achieve their goals and dreams. We operate high-quality financial coaching and savings programs and pursue opportunities to shape the national approach to poverty through practice and policy change. Compass is also an emerging leader in a national effort to leverage housing assistance as a platform for economic mobility.

About The Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program Congress created the FSS program in 1990 as an employment and savings program for families in federally subsidized housing.
