ABOUT HOYLETON YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES

We are a faith-based organization, founded upon the social justice heritage of the United Church of Christ. Since our founding in 1895, we have grown to be one of southern Illinois' leaders in providing emotional and mental health services for every stage of youth and family development. We offer a wide variety of programs, including foster care, counseling, residential, and community programs. Our mission is to enable all people, young and old alike, to realize the wholeness of life that God intends.

Our team of professionals is energized daily because they have the opportunity to bring positive change to someone's life. In fact, "changing lives" is in everyone's job description. We also offer competitive pay, excellent benefits, and a positive work culture.


A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A FULL-TIME, PART-TIME, OR CALL-IN YOUTH CARE WORKER / RESIDENTIAL

As a Youth Care Worker, you are on the frontlines of what we do. Under the direction of your supervisor, you implement daily therapeutic programming that promotes independence. As a youth mentor, you teach and model healthy life skills, social skills, and coping skills. You facilitate both educational and recreational activities to promote learning and fun. Employing your training in our CARE practice model and the Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) system, you maintain a safe, positive, and therapeutic environment. You learn each individual's trauma history and triggers as well as how to anticipate crises and use de-escalation techniques. Resident safety, both physical and emotional, is your highest priority. You are also conscientious about keeping accurate and up-to-date documentation. You find working with youth in a constructive environment to be highly rewarding


QUALIFICATIONS FOR A FULL-TIME, PART-TIME, OR CALL-IN YOUTH CARE WORKER / RESIDENTIAL

  • At least 21 years of age
  • High school diploma or equivalent
  • Ability and willingness to learn the CARE practice model and TCI system as well as apply their principles
  • Valid driver's license and proof of insurance
  • Enjoy being a youth mentor

A bachelor's degree in human services and related experience is preferred but multiple factors will be taken into consideration. Are you emotionally mature, patient, empathetic, and able to maintain appropriate professional boundaries? Do you have a good sense of humor? Are you kind and generous? If so, you might just be perfect for taking a day, evening, or night shift as a residential youth mentor


FULL-TIME, PART-TIME, OR CALL-IN WORK SCHEDULE

This full-time, part-time, or call-in youth mentor position has multiple shifts available, depending on the specific vacancy. Day, evening, and night shifts are available.
