What is Caminos?

Board of Child Care’s Caminos® program provides safe, secure placement options for children who have recently migrated to the United States and are seeking opportunities for reunification with family as well as the chance to pursue their education and legal immigration cases. They are young and vulnerable, and have made the hazardous journey facing exploitation, abuse and human trafficking alone and have been placed in our care.

What we are looking for:

The Home Study & Post Release Case Manager provides culturally competent assessment and case management services serving recently immigrated unaccompanied children and the individuals sponsoring them here in the United States. This position entails conducting home studies of the potential sponsor (caregiver) homes to assess for safety and suitability for placement and providing post release services that promote the successful community integration of the youth and support family reunification efforts.


The Case Manager supports the delivery of Board of Child Care’s trauma responsive model by providing comprehensive services to both the referred youth and their caregivers, designed to increase effective communication, provide psychoeducation, and ensure youth and families are connected to a supportive network and formal and informal resources in their community. Board of Child Care works in collaboration with the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) to provide home study and post release case management to UCs who are reunified with caregivers across the Mid-Atlantic and surrounding regions as well as other parts of the country.

What you will need:


Required Education and Experience

  • Bachelor’s degree in the behavioral sciences, human services or social services fields.
  • Bilingual in English and Spanish (both oral and written)

Preferred Education and Experience

  • Master’s Degree in Social Work from an accredited college or university and 1-year experience in providing direct services to children/youth and families.
  • Active certification in SAFE Home Study (or similar method) certifications.
  • Two years of experience providing direct services to foreign born, immigrant and/or refugee populations.
  • Child welfare and/or ORR case management experience.
  • Proficiency in languages other than English and Spanish.
