About the role

LSF envisions a world where children are safe, families are strong, and communities are vibrant. LSF is looking for talented Youth Mentors who want to make an impact in the lives of at‑risk youth in our male and female group homes. We are looking for people who are willing to work with challenging behaviors while having the ability to make an impact in the youth’s lives. Purpose & Impact: Key responsibilities include the direct supervision of youth residents, providing quality care, ensuring a safe and secure environment and transporting and accompanying/supervising residents on outside activities. This is a direct service delivery position at a primary location, but the position may work at any one of a number of regional group homes within a reasonable radius as shift needs arise. These group homes house adolescent teens who have aggressive behaviors. The ideal candidate for this role is someone who would be comfortable working with at‑risk adolescent males and females. The ideal candidate would also not be intimidated by youth who have been impacted by abuse, neglect, and trauma. Take on a challenging role while having the ability to be a mentor and make an impact in the lives of youth.
