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 girls and boys ages 12-18 in our program. You’ll ensure the safety of each child, and manage tasks that create a warm, loving home for kids who need a refuge.

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.
