Therapeutic Training & Support Staff

Therapeutic Training & Support Staff ($3000 Sign-On!)

In-Home Therapy (IHT) is a structured, consistent, strengths-based therapeutic relationship between a clinician and the youth and family for the purpose of meeting the youth’s behavioral health needs, including improving the family’s ability to provide effective support for the youth to promote his/her/their healthy functioning within the family.

Interventions are designed to enhance the family’s capacity to improve the youth’s functioning in the home and community and may prevent the need for the youth’s admission to an inpatient hospital, residential treatment facility or other treatment setting.

Child and Family Services recognizes the power in Diversity and believes that Equity is a Human Right.

A $1 per hour Language Differential is offered for eligible languages, including Cape Verdean Creole, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, Spanish, or ASL.
