Become the Stable Adult a Child Has Been Waiting For

This isn't just a job—it's an opportunity to change the course of a child's life.

We are seeking a compassionate, dependable, and dedicated Live-In House Parent to provide care, guidance, structure, and support for up to four boys ages 3–18 living in a neighborhood foster home.

Many of the youth we serve have experienced trauma, family instability, behavioral health challenges, or involvement with the juvenile justice system. What they need most is a caring adult who shows up consistently, provides encouragement, and helps them build confidence for the future.

As a House Parent, you'll create a safe, family-style home where youth can heal, grow, learn life skills, and experience the stability every child deserves.

If you're looking for meaningful work where you can see the impact of your efforts every day, we'd love to hear from you.

Why This Work Matters

The support you provide today may help a child:

  • Graduate high school

  • Build healthy relationships

  • Develop independence and life skills

  • Improve emotional well-being

  • Break negative cycles and create a brighter future

The relationships you build can have a lasting impact long after a child leaves care.
