Grand Rapids, United States Wedgwood Christian Services Full time

**Youth Treatment Specialist (PT) - Boelkins Program**

**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 boys and girls ages 10-16 in our program. You’ll mentor, join in recreational activities, and create a warm, loving home for teens who need a refuge.

**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.**

**Qualifications**:

- Applicant must be at least 20 years of age

- 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.
