    At Northern Children's Services, Inc., we value diversity, inclusion, and the well-being of every individual. Join us in our mission to empower children and families, one meaningful interaction at a time. Apply today and be a part of something truly extraordinary

    This position works after-school hours, generally 4pm-8pm on weekdays.

    Northern Children's Services supports the healthy development of children and youth, while stabilizing their families to build stronger communities. Everything we do at Northern Children's Services is designed to create a better future for our families. We are currently hiring Behavioral Health Technicians (BHT) to join our team

    The BHT provides behavioral management interventions to a child or adolescent with a serious emotional disturbance, in the assigned afterschool Wellness & Resiliency Program (WRP) setting, in support of the family or other responsible adults, in order to prevent more restrictive services or out-of-home placement. This role may involve the provision of 1:1 services or group services (if multiple clients are in the same room). Services may also be provided to integrate or re-integrate the child into normalizing settings and activities. The BHT is responsible for providing behavioral health interventions to stabilize the child(ren), assist in developing age-appropriate self-management skills, and to support and empower parents, family members, teachers or other adults responsible for supervising the child in an educational or other community setting.

    This position requires some work flexibility. Hours during the school year are generally 4pm-8pm on weekdays. During the summer, camp hours are traditionally 10am-4pm. We are ideally seeking candidates who can work both schedules, but will consider candidates who may only be able to work the after school schedule at this time.

    Documentation

    • Complete all documentation in a timely fashion and in required formats, including, but not limited to progress notes, incident reports, and encounter forms
    • Document all therapeutic interactions, unusual incidents, routine activities, etc. as required by policies and procedures
    Participation
    • Plan and organize interventions that support in the social, emotional and educational development of the consumer, based upon the Treatment Plan
    • Attend interagency meetings to ensure continuity of service
    • Attend mandatory in-service trainings
    • Participate in Performance Improvement Activities
    • Attend psychiatric and medication evaluation to ensure service delivery
    Monitoring
    • In accordance with the principles of best practice, provide oversight and direction to assigned children.
    • Assess and reassess the service needs of the designated consumers and inform the Clinician assigned to the child for update of the Treatment Plan.
    Direct Service
    • Create an environment which fosters positive growth and development for all consumers
    • Provide interventions to promote social growth in all consumers
    • Directly implement components of the treatment plans developed in conjunction with the treatment team
    • Provide regular/routine feedback to team regarding relevance of treatment plan, need for alternative interventions, etc.
    Networking
    • Represent agency at conferences, training and interagency meetings, as needed
    Trauma-Informed Behavior

    Willingness to learn and maintain the value of a trauma-informed culture. Commit to the maintenance of a therapeutic environment and community that promotes safety, nonviolence, and resilience as the basis for all we do with clients and staff.

    • Knowledge and utilization of trauma-informed practices:
