Are you passionate about supporting parents, empowering families, and helping little ones thrive? Do you love connecting with people, building trust, and making a difference in your community? If so, you’ll feel right at home with us.
We’re looking for a Family Support & Resource Specialist who brings heart, energy, and curiosity to the work. In this role, you’ll be the friendly face families meet first — guiding them through assessments, offering encouragement, and providing ongoing home‑visiting support that strengthens parent‑child relationships and promotes healthy child development.
This isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to change lives.
What You’ll Do
- Be the welcoming point of contact for families referred by hospitals, WIC, medical providers, and community partners
- Reach out to families, complete eligibility assessments, and help them understand their options
- Enroll families and provide supportive home visits that build confidence and connection
- Help parents set meaningful goals and celebrate their progress
- Use fun, evidence‑based tools to support child development and positive parenting
- Connect families to medical providers, community resources, and developmental supports
- Keep clear, timely documentation (we’ll train you!)
- Represent the program at community events and outreach activities
- Serve as a trusted advocate and mandated reporter when safety concerns arise
What You Bring
- Experience working with young children and their families
- A natural ability to build trust and meet people where they are
- Cultural humility and a genuine respect for each family’s story
- Strong communication skills and a willingness to learn
- A reliable vehicle, valid driver’s license, and insurance
- Openness to training — including Healthy Families Core Training
Bonus points if you have:
- A degree in Human Services, Social Work, Early Childhood, or a related field
- Bilingual skills
- Infant Mental Health Endorsement
Why You’ll Love This Role
- Flexible scheduling after training
- A supportive, reflective team environment
- Opportunities for professional growth
- Work that truly matters — every visit, every conversation, every milestone
- The chance to make a lasting impact on families in your community
Work Environment
This is a community‑based role, so you’ll be out and about — visiting families in their homes, attending community events, and connecting with partners. Some evenings or weekends may be needed to meet families where they are.
