Home Visitor

Harlem Children's Zone Home Visitor

Harlem Children's Zone (HCZ) — a world-renowned education and poverty-fighting organization based in New York — seeks an enthusiastic, dedicated, and mission-aligned Home Visitor for our Baby College GRADS Early Headstart Program.

The Home Visitor will bring a passion for the mission of Harlem Children's Zone: break the cycle of intergenerational poverty with comprehensive, on-the-ground programming that builds up opportunities for children and families to thrive in school, work, and life.

The Home Visitor will join the Baby College GRADS program. GRADS is an Early Head Start home-based program designed to promote the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development of young children and families from the child's birth through the first three years of their lives. The program runs for a full year and includes weekly home visits and socializations. The goal is to provide information and support to these families in accordance with the Performance Standards of Head Start to ensure children are raised happy, healthy, and ready to learn.

We are seeking a Home Visitor to support children and families through the creative facilitation of home visiting and socialization activities, application of early childhood assessments, screenings, individualized lesson plans, and identification of client needs and the community resources that can help them achieve their goals. Home Visitors will also play a lead role in maintaining case files and data entry from the intake to the program completion stage.
