The work schedule is flexible to meet the needs of the program and youth served and requires independence, and a high amount of travel across four service counties—Ocean, Monmouth, Burlington, and Camden.
Life Set is an individualized, evidence‑based community‑based program that is highly intensive. Life Set specialists meet with participants face‑to‑face at least once each week.

Specialists stabilize even the toughest situations and help young people build healthy relationships, obtain safe housing, education and employment. Life Set is one of the nation’s first— and now one of the largest— evidence‑based programs helping young people who age out of foster care.
