What We're Looking For

• A high school diploma or equivalent required. Degree in social work, psych, or similar field is a plus!

• A big heart, strong communication skills, and a team-player attitude
• Comfort working independently and being flexible with your schedule (evenings/weekends/holidays)

• MHRT-1 certified
• CRMA, 40-hour certification
• Starting at $23.10/hr
