Ember Hope Youthville, a leading, faith-based provider of child welfare services is committed to helping you succeed as an employee as you work to make a difference in the life of a child either directly or by offering administrative support.

Team members from all departments will focus on carrying out the Ember Hope Youthville mission, vision, and values!

Children who’ve experienced trauma need consistent, patient, and compassionate support. The Behavioral Interventionist Program™ provides that support directly in the home through one-on-one, trauma-informed care that helps children:

• Regulate emotions
• Strengthen coping skills
• Build healthy attachments
• Maintain stable placements with their caregivers

• 82% decrease in residential care admissions
• 75% decrease in psychiatric hospitalizations
• Significant improvement in emotional health and placement stability

This part time position offers meaningful work with the flexibility to choose the days and times that fit your life.

Required service hours occur between 3 PM and 9 PM, when children are home from school.

When children are out of school—holidays, breaks, summers, appointments, or weather-related closures—you may complete shifts earlier in the day based on the family’s needs and your availability.
