• Enjoy free coffee and snacks, and great training while earning a competitive wage.

This is a part-time, hourly position working Saturday and Sunday from 1:45pm - 10:15pm. It pays $22 to $25 per hour based on your experience. Additional compensation will be considered for the following:

• Bachelor's degree or above

This position requires a valid California driver’s license and the ability to pass and maintain a clean driving record check (MVR) in accordance with our company standards. In addition, you must be at least 21 years of age and pass a background check, live scan, physical and TB test to work at the facility.

Note: Research shows that women and individuals from underrepresented backgrounds often apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. We recognize that it is highly unlikely that an applicant meets 100% of the qualifications for a given role. Therefore, if much of this job description describes you, then you are highly encouraged to apply for this role.

The Role

You will provide rehabilitative support regarding the care of a co-occurring population, ensuring that clients and staff have what they need to follow the lead of the Clinical Director and Program Director. We\'re well organized and there is always someone to reach out to for support, should you need it. Each shift will include general daily activities (i.e., waking clients, providing hygiene baskets, monitoring from a distance, doing chores, ensuring meds are taken, etc.).
