    Responsibilities

    Program Overview

    Our Thrive program, a less intensive alternative to Intercept, is an in-home program that works with the child and family to divert youth from further involvement in the juvenile justice system, intervening at the critical point after they first encounter the system. The youth admitted to this program would be at risk of probation and court involvement but less at risk than youth served in Intercept and MST. The in-home approach, which incorporates the family in treatment, addresses drivers for juvenile delinquent behaviors without out-of-home placement. Thrive utilizes two evidence-based interventions to help youth remain safely in their communities: Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) and Motivational Interviewing (MI).

    Position Overview

    • Work with youth and families that have been (or are at risk of being) involved in the juvenile justice system
    • Carry caseload of 8-12 families
    • Hold family sessions with each family once a week scheduled at the convenience of the families
    • 3 supervision meetings a week
    • Web-based documentation (voice recognition technology in most locations)
    • Provide on-call availability to families on a rotating schedule
    • Counselors provide treatment in individual families' homes in a wide array of settings and communities

    Additional Information

    Schedule is non-traditional, but flexible and based around clients’ availability. Since counselors are heavily involved with each family, long hours may be required.

    Counselors must have their own vehicle to use for work purposes as well as have liability insurance. Counselors are reimbursed for mileage.

    Salary

    $52000 - $60000 / year based on education and clinical license
