As a Residential Treatment Specialist I (RTS I), you'll make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and teens ages 5-17 by providing a safe, supportive, and structured environment where they can learn, grow, and heal. In this hands‑on role, you'll build positive relationships with youth, teach life and social skills, encourage healthy behaviors, and help them work toward their individual treatment goals.

Every day is different—you may help with daily routines, lead activities, support therapy goals, respond to challenging behaviors with compassion, document progress, and communicate with families and your team. We're looking for caring, dependable individuals who enjoy working with children, stay calm under pressure, and want to make a lasting impact. You'll work as part of a supportive team in a trauma‑informed environment that values a PCL Culture of Purpose, Caring, and Learning.

If you're passionate about helping young people succeed and want a career where what you do truly matters, we'd love to have you join our team.

• Engage youth in therapeutic, recreational, and skill‑building activities that promote growth and development.
• Work collaboratively with your team to continuously improve the care and support we provide.
