TJJD - JCO Supervisor (GNS)
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content.
We have the posting text:
Agency Information (some description). Then Job Description (paragraph). Then Essential Job Duties (list). Then Minimum Qualifications (text). Then OR PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS (cut off). The posting seems truncated after "ORPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONSCo". Probably missing rest.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent. We must not include cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. There's none.
We need to decide sections: About the role could be the Agency Information + Job Description combined? Usually "About the role" is a summary. We have Agency Information describing mission, and Job Description describing role. Could combine into About the role.
Responsibilities: Essential Job Duties list.
Requirements: Minimum Qualifications.
Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications (though truncated). We have only "ORPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONSCo". That's not meaningful; maybe it's cut off. We cannot include placeholder. So we should not create Qualifications section if content is not substantive. The instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. Since we only have "ORPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONSCo" which is not real content, we should omit Qualifications section.
Skills: Not explicitly listed; maybe implied in duties but not separate. We could omit.
Benefits, Pay, Schedule: Not mentioned. So omit.
Thus we will have sections: About the role (combining Agency Information and Job Description), Responsibilities (Essential Job Duties), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications). Use for each.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For Responsibilities we have list of duties (multiple sentences). We'll convert each duty into
- . For Requirements we have minimum qualifications text (maybe not a list). Could be a paragraph. Use
.
We must preserve all substantive information. Let's extract.
Agency Information paragraph:
"We are committed to transforming lives and building safer communities by working collaboratively, communicating openly, and upholding the highest standards of integrity and professionalism. Our team models accountability, transparency, and respect, taking proactive steps to ensure the physical and emotional safety of youth, staff, and the community. We strive for excellence through continuous growth, thoughtful decision making, and mission driven collaboration, supporting one another while embracing challenges that lead to meaningful, long-term impact."
Note: there is a typo "safter" but we keep as is? It says "safter communities". Probably a typo but we must preserve. We'll keep exactly as given.
Job Description paragraph:
"Performs highly complex (senior-level) work overseeing correctional staff who provide direct care to juveniles in a correctional residential facility. Work involves overseeing the daily operations of a juvenile residential unit; supporting and mentoring correctional officers on their unit; ensuring the safety and security of youth and staff; and working directly with youth, coaching their personal development in accordance with their treatment plans. May plan, assign, and/or supervise the work of others. Responsible for the development of the JCOs on the dorm and for ensuring JCOs are trained appropriately on dorm and youth management.
Provides on the job training to new JCOs assigned to their unit. Maintains a consistent effort to ensure safe environments and employs security measures when youth, staff, or others are in danger. Interacts and engages with youth in ways that both maintain appropriate structure and exercise understanding of brain development in youth with complex trauma. Maintains healthy relationships and boundaries with youth and consistently recognizes progress and good choices made by youth. Responds appropriately to youth grievances. May act as Campus Shift Administrator.
Works under limited supervision, with considerable latitude for the use of initiative and independent judgment. Works assigned shift; and may be required to work in excess of 40 hours per work week, be on-call, and occasional travel."
Pre-Service Training Academy Requirement paragraph:
"Pre-Service Training Academy Requirement: Newly hired JCOs or rehired JCOs who have been separated more than 18 months will be required to attend the pre-service training academy and complete on-the-job training on a full-time basis. JCOs who have worked for TJJD and return to employment within 18 months of their separation date will not have to attend the pre-service academy and will be placed in full-time status on their date of employment."
This is part of Job Description? It seems separate but still part of role description. We'll include in About the role.
Now Essential Job Duties list (multiple sentences each starting with a verb). We'll extract each as bullet.
List:
- Provides on the job training to Juvenile Correctional Officers on their assigned unit. Teaches dorm operations and role models appropriate methods and interventions. Responsible for ensuring Juvenile Correctional Officers complete dorm modules and are ready to be sole supervision certified.

Coaches youth on how to resolve conflict with other youth and staff as appropriate. Practices and models appropriate regulation and situational awareness skills and is able to remain calm during times of stress and crisis. Helps JCOs identify and utilize their own self-regulation skills so they are equipped to co-regulate youth. Fully understands the youths target behavior, reinforcers, specific skill focus, behavior change strategies, and safety needs. Supports staff to have a working knowledge of these factors. Participates in the Youth Service Team and provides input into each youths treatment plan

- Expected to have an understanding of TJJD's treatment programs for the youth including Texas Model 2.0 and be able to evaluate application of the Model by TJJD staff when visiting/auditing facilities and locations where youth are supervised.
We need to keep the sub-bullets? The instruction: use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Could nest? Probably just flat list; we can keep sub-bullets as separate
- or include within same
- with line breaks. Safer to keep as separate
- for each distinct duty. The sub-bullets under "Performs all duties in compliance..." could be separate items.
Now Minimum Qualifications paragraph:
"Must be at least 21 years of age and have a high school diploma or equivalent. One year of full-time wage-earning experience supervising or providing rehabilitation/treatment services to youth or adults in a treatment program, correctional program, or a residential setting (e.g., correctional officer, case manager, counselor, or probation or parole officer)."
That's it.
Preferred Qualifications: truncated "ORPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONSCo". Not usable.
Thus we will output:
About the role
Agency Information paragraph + Job Description paragraphs + Pre-Service Training Academy Requirement paragraph.
We need to ensure we preserve line breaks? Use with the combined text. Could separate into multiple
but instruction: use
for prose. Could have multiple
elements. We'll keep each paragraph as separate
under the section.
Thus:
