Aftercare Supervisor

New Alternatives for Children, Inc. (NAC) is an award-winning not-for-profit agency dedicated to serving children and families with medical complexities, chronic illnesses, and disabilities throughout the five boroughs. To assist in achieving this mission, NAC is currently seeking an Aftercare Supervisor to join its Aftercare Department. The goals of Aftercare are to prevent child abuse and/or neglect, achieve child safety, and ensure permanency in biological, adoptive, and kinship families. Through its three programs- Partners in Parenting, which serves birth families, and the Family Permanency Center and PLAN, which support adoptive parents and kinship caregivers, Aftercare provides targeted services to meet the unique needs of each population. These programs work to help children remain with their birth families, or, if this is not possible, to ensure they are adopted into loving homes and that the adoption or guardianship is not disrupted or dissolved. Aftercare is committed to ensuring that families have the ongoing support they need to avoid child welfare recidivism and maintain long-term stability. By reinforcing progress made in prior services and offering continued preventive support, Aftercare serves as a vital safety net for the medically complex and behaviorally challenged children and families we serve. To further strengthen these efforts, NAC seeks to establish an Aftercare Supervisor position. This role will provide oversight, guidance, and support to staff across the aftercare department. The supervisor will play a key role in ensuring quality service delivery, promoting consistency in practice, and supporting team development, while specific supervisory assignments may evolve based on program needs.
