Description

Be the reason a kid has a better day!

We are hiring a Behavioral Coach for our school-based day treatment program. Work school hours, have your evenings and weekends free, and help kids learn the skills that change how they see themselves.

As a Behavioral Coach, you're a steady, caring adult in a student's school day. You help kids learn to manage big feelings, build friendships and succeed in the classroom. You won't do it alone: you'll work side by side with teachers, therapists and fellow coaches who have your back every day.

• A schedule built around the school day. Daytime hours, Monday through Friday, with evenings, weekends and school breaks that work for your life. No overnights.


• Work that matters. You'll see the progress up close helping kids everyday.


• A true team. Coaches, teachers, therapists and families work together on every student's plan. You'll debrief together, problem-solve together and celebrate wins together.


• Training and growth. We train you in non-violent crisis intervention and mental health principles. It's a strong start for a career in education, psychology, social work or counseling.


• Never a boring day. You'll run, play, teach and get outside with kids, including field trips during summer programming.

• Give school-time medications to students after completing Medication Aide training


• Complete charting and documentation in our electronic medical record on time

Requirements:

• High school diploma or GED (college coursework is a plus, not a requirement)


• At least 2 years working with youth with emotional or behavioral challenges, direct-service experience in human services, or post-secondary education in human services


• Patience, compassion and a sense of humor


• A team-first attitude and clear communication with people of all backgrounds

• Physically able to manage escalated or aggressive behavior (we'll train you)


• Respect for confidentiality


• Willingness to complete Medication Aide training after hire


• A valid driver's license is preferred
