Hope Well supports transition-age youth with child welfare involvement in a variety of community-based environments as they work towards their goals around healthy living, housing stability, sustainable employment, and educational achievement. Hope Well offers a continuum of transition-age youth services that offer community-based case management and individualized education and employment support.

Through My First Place™, youth ages 18 and older receive these services while residing in stable, safe and affordable housing provided by Hope Well. Youth who have exited the child welfare system and obtained an FYI voucher through their local Public Housing Authority, we also help them find housing that will accept their voucher. And My Next Step is for youth ages 16 and older who are typically living in foster care, with extended family, or independently in the community.

Hope Well owns and leases apartments to house youth in the My First Place™ program, and supports youth with FYI vouchers, or who are exiting My First Place™ or My Next Step, in securing housing in the community.

The Housing and Property Manager is a dynamic, collaborative, and results-oriented service provider who will secure and maintain a portfolio of owned and rented scattered site units throughout the community. Hope Well offers a unique approach in a highly collaborative environment. The Housing and Property Manager will be excited about working as a unified team with staff who directly support program youth.

We are seeking someone who has the knowledge, skills, and motivation to oversee daily property management functions in both owned and rented units, grow housing inventory when needed, and use effective, collaborative strategies (e.g. active listening, conflict management) to address issues that surface between landlords and youth.

Youth often face uncertainty as they enter adulthood — and this is especially true for those with child welfare involvement. To help them reach their full potential at a pivotal time in their lives, Hope Well’s continuum of services for transition-age youth provide support that prepares them for independence as they launch into adulthood. Hope Well’s transition age youth services are steadily expanding, and this is an exciting opportunity to join a growing and engaged team to support youth comprehensively.
