Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionActivity Treatment Specialist (Full-Time)- Cook Claus
What you'll do
Working in one of our residential homes alongside the Home Supervisor, you'll help manage staff training and development. Additionally, you'll mentor girls ages 12-17, join in recreational activities, and create a warm, loving home for teens who need a refuge.
Compensation + Collaboration
We're starting team members at up to $23 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.
Hours: Monday - Thursday 1-9pm; every other weekend rotating between 1st and 2nd shift.
