  • Support our youth, their families, and community partners in healing and growth activities as directed and in collaboration with staff
  • Attend team meetings and provide verbal and written input as requested
  • Maintain confidentiality within all written and verbal communications
  • Regular punctual attendance

Qualifications:

  1. The ideal candidate is 21 years of age or older, is actively pursuing a bachelor’s degree in a related field (human services, social work, psychology, criminal justice, etc.) and has some experience in the youth social service industry.
  2.

  3. Ability to follow instructions, attend professional development training sessions, and learn techniques and skills designed to enhance youth development
  4. Ability to demonstrate empathy, humility, and an understanding and appreciation of DEI principles.
  5. Ability to communicate effectively and work with a team.
