Grand Rapids, United States Wedgwood Christian Services Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

Youth Treatment Specialist (PT)

What you’ll do

Working in one of our residential homes alongside our experienced care team, you’ll implement individual treatment plans tailored to meet the needs of youth ages 17-18 in our program. You’ll ensure the safety of each child, and assist in skill preparation for those who are preparing for independent or community living.

Compensation + Collaboration

Team members will earn up to $22 per hour with a generous benefits package. You’ll join a passionate, purposeful, and collaborative team who is committed to doing what it takes to give youth a brighter future.

Let’s be honest…

We won’t sugarcoat this. Some days are going to be tough. Those in our care have been abused and neglected, have histories of mental health challenges, and some are involved in the juvenile justice system. Their trauma is real. They’re short on trust and sometimes quick to anger. They’re not used to caring adults who show up day after day.

But you will. You were built for this.

Hours: Every other weekend, rotating between 1st and 2nd shift.

Qualifications:

  • Applicant must be at least 20 years of age

  • High school diploma required

  • Must have a valid driver’s license

  • Additional education and/or certification in Psychology, Social Work, Counseling, or a related field preferred.

  • Prior experience supervising at risk youth is preferred

  • Ability to pivot, bend, twist and stoop while bearing weight of individuals served.

  • Willing to pick up third shift hours with advanced notice.

  • Ability to lift 50 lbs. non-stationary weight through the approved technique is required.

  • Subscription to the Statement of Faith of Wedgwood Christian Services and agreement with the goal, purpose, and objective of the agency.

Benefits:

  • 403(b) retirement plan with employer match
  • A Locally Partnered Employee Assistance Program
  • Pet insurance discount through Nationwide
  • Legal Insurance
  • Direct deposit
  • Federal Student Loan Forgiveness
  • Wedgwood is proud to offer a full gymnasium with an attached 24hr wellness center that houses a wide variety of workout equipment. Wedgwood is happy to provide this space to our staff at no cost.
  • Walking trail that leads around the beautiful campus.
