Are you looking to make a difference in your community by supporting youth and families? Have you completed your bachelor’s degree in social services or psychology? As a Child and Family Counselor for Wraparound in Modesto, California, you’ll use your education and experience to positively impact a child’s life. While working one-on-one with at-risk youth and their families in their home or community setting, you’ll implement treatment and intervention plans to provide tools for the youth to thrive in their community.

YOUR OPPORTUNITY

As a Child and Family Counselor in Modesto, California, you will travel to your client’s homes or community setting to coach and guide at-risk youth to strengthen their foundation to thrive in daily life. By building a strong, positive, caring relationship, you’ll create a safe space for your client to share and seek guidance during challenging times. In our team-based setting, you’ll document and share the status and experiences of your treatment and intervention plans with other team members, which may include social workers, parent partners, program managers and clinicians to provide the best support for the youth.

Whether you are meeting with your client individually or in a family setting, you’ll build a trusting relationship with each of your clients. The flexible schedule allows you to meet with your 3-5 clients at optimal times. Just by the client knowing you believe in them, you become the catalyst that helps them improve. You'll see your clients improve their anger management skills, increase their self-esteem, improve their social skills and increase their social connections, and improve their impulse control in order to maintain their placement, avoid hospitalization or juvenile justice involvement and strengthen their resiliency, relationships, and family connectedness.
