    Default job background
    Description

    We are committed to supporting at risk children and families by providing them with tools and resources to help prevent children from experiencing child abuse, neglect and abandonment.

    We are a Christian agency that believes in living our mission:
    "to provide Christ-centered care and support to children and families in need."


    In response to this community-wide challenge, Presbyterian Children's Homes and Services (PCHAS), provides 14 programs and services in 28 locations in Texas, Missouri and Louisiana.

    In all of our programs, we seek to provide children with permanent homes and adults with increased self-sufficiency.

    This is accomplished by the agency's commitment to "The PCHAS Way" which inspires the agency to be strength-focused, family-centered, and goal driven with every client.


    Benefits of serving children and families in need through PCHAS include competitive salaries, flex work schedules, paid time off, medical, dental and vision insurance options, voluntary life insurance options, paid holidays, and a very generous retirement plan (after one year of service and working 1,000 hours the agency matches an employee's contribution).

    • To practice with a family centered, strength focused and goal driven approach while utilizing the PCHAS Way.
    • To assist and encourage families to advocate and coordinate (within their capacity) all needed services for themselves with the overall goal of achieving self-sufficiency.

    Working Conditions:
    Most offices are provided in Presbyterian churches with normal office equipment (computer, fax, copier, office furniture).

    Much of the work week is spent outside the office doing home visits, face to face contact with clients, resource networking and agency relations.
