Program Description

The Home for Little Wanderers, Waltham House, located in Waltham, MA is looking for an Overnight Residential Supervisor. Waltham House is the first residential group home designed specifically for LGBTQIA youth in New England, and one of only three of its kind in the nation. Its founding principles are that every child deserves to live in an environment in which they feel safe, respected, supported and cared for by those around them.

The group home provides a safe and supportive living environment with 24-hour staffing for up to 12 gay, lesbian, bisexual, and/or transgender youth ages 14-18. Many youth at Waltham House have experienced difficulty - at home or in placement - due to their gender expression or sexuality identities. Their stay at Waltham House prepares them for what is next in their plan which may be reunification with their families, transitioning to a foster family, or preparing for independent living.
