We seek to champion children and families by providing the mental, emotional and physical spaces they need to feel empowered and to thrive.

Lived experience may be considered in lieu of degree. + A minimum of one year's experience in Human Services or foster care preferred. + Minimum age of 21 years. + Basic computer skills, including ability to effectively use an electronic client and other databases. + Required knowledge of and skills in: the child welfare and foster care system, permanency planning, trauma-informed care, family functioning, and child development. + Working knowledge of foster care licensing and regulatory requirements across multiple states, or demonstrated ability to quickly learn state-specific requirements. + Ability to work autonomously and make appropriate decisions in crisis situations. + Strong verbal, written, and interpersonal communication skills. + Ability and willingness to travel regularly between multiple states as program needs require.**Vehicle Requirements:*** + Own transportation that meets agency vehicle inspection requirements. + Valid driver's license with no more than 6 points. + Proof of insurance that meets agency requirements.**Environment:*** + Most direct service work occurs in a combination of home- and community-based environments across multiple states.
