About Upbring
At Upbring, we are servants on a mission to break the cycle of child abuse. We are warriors, brave as the thousands of Texas Children and families we serve. We stand up for those who can’t speak for themselves. We are a family who values innovation, empathy, patience, understanding and trustworthiness.
About our Children's Shelters
Many children begin life in the face of serious challenges. Instead of playing pretend and imagining grand adventures, unaccompanied children face perilous conditions alone as they travel to unfamiliar countries, leaving home and loved ones behind to escape war and violence. Our children’s centers, operated through a grant from the Office of Refugee and Resettlement (ORR), provide safety, stability and wraparound services. We help children grow into adults who have received love and kindness, instead of only violence and chaos.
What You'll Do as a Clinician
The Clinician is a member of the program’s clinical team. The Clinician provides individual, group, and family therapy for Unaccompanied Children (UC), conducts assessments, and works in collaboration with multidisciplinary treatment teams to develop treatment plans and conduct utilization reviews. The Clinician is primarily responsible for the therapeutic needs and continuum of the clinical care for the UC in accordance with Agency policies and procedures, licensing standards, and federal, state, CARF and local regulatory agencies.
Our Upbring staff members are servant-leaders in the pursuit of breaking the cycle of child abuse and empowering others to do the same through example while embodying our core values: We are Warriors. We are Servants. We are Family.
All Upbring Children's Shelters employees must comply with ORR's vaccination mandate.
All staff must be able to show proof of immunity to vaccine-preventable diseases transmitted by the respiratory route if working directly with unaccompanied children (UC). Medical and Religious exemptions may be requested after an offer of employment is accepted.
