Group Home Youth Counselor
1 week ago
VHBG is licensed by the Department of Social Services and aims to create the most natural environment for our youth that still provides them with the supports they need to overcome past trauma, build relationships, and work on transitioning to a more permanent environment. We work directly with the child's agency that placed them with us (typically the city or county department of social services) to make decisions that are in their best interest. Youth are able to leave our campus to spend time with their families, attend summer camps, gain employment, and participate in other extracurricular activities. We have been able to give the youth who come here the opportunity to have a childhood and experience the joy in life.

• Communicate professionally with clients' teachers, parents, caseworkers, and probation officers, etc.
• Transport clients if needed
• Document activities, behaviors, contacts, and interventions as they occur
• Work a two week rotating schedule
• Embrace agency commitment to open communication in both giving and receiving information and feedback.
Experience and Education:
High school diploma or equivalent required; Bachelor's degree preferred. Minimum of 6 months working with children or adolescents required. One year of experience working with youth in a group home facility is preferred. Clinical experience working with youth is preferred.
