Paterson, United States New City Kids Full time

ABOUT NEW CITY KIDS

New City Kids is a high energy, creative program for and with youth that trusts teens with leadership as they develop in four key areas: spiritual, leadership, academic and music. It is a joyful place filled with laughter and hard work, and has an excellent staff of dedicated adults who love children. We employ local high school students as interns to lead an excellent and unique music-focused after school center and summer camp for children ages 6-13, which provides a platform for a whole host of development opportunities for children. As kids and teens engage New City Kids, they discover an invitation to begin a journey with Christ.

POSITION SUMMARY

The Licensed Social Worker will serve as a counselor for our Brighter Day programming who will lead a series of classes and small groups for the children and teen interns at New City Kids, which are trauma-informed, play-based, and directly address Adverse Childhood Experiences. In Brighter Day, youth learn body safety and social-emotional skills in a safe, welcoming group or class setting, supporting and empowering one another through the group experience. The Brighter Day Counselor will also provide individual mental health support and/or crisis intervention for children, teen interns and their families as needed.

The goal of Brighter Day is lifelong health and wellness for our youth, through body safety education, abuse prevention, and short term mental health support. The Brighter Day Counselor will be trained to teach proven body safety and emotional skills, and support youth to process any challenging or traumatic experiences in families, schools and neighborhoods. They will also partner with and encourage parents/guardians and school staff to seek out further mental health care for NCK youth as needed, through local referrals.

Using the Brighter Day curriculum (based in trauma-focused play therapy (TF-PT) and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) theories) the Counselor will provide 2 classes and 1 (evening) group per week. Examples of class/group topics include: feelings identification and sharing, understanding physical and sexual abuse and neglect, identifying safe adults, loss and grief (immigration, deportation, incarceration), depression, anxiety & anger, dating and relationships, suicide/suicidal thoughts, pornography, LGBTQ and gender identity issues, relationships with parents/caregivers, managing stress and worry, domestic violence.
