Full Job Description

Youth Mentor – Full-Time

Position Overview

Location: Cedar City, Utah

A residential treatment program in Cedar City, Utah is seeking resilient, high-ownership individuals who want to do meaningful and challenging work with adolescents who have experienced significant trauma.

As a Youth Mentor, you will work with a team of staff to support a group of 8–14 students, ensuring their safety, stability, and growth. This role requires steady leadership, emotional composure, and a commitment to helping young people develop healthier patterns.

This role is active, relational, and demanding—and deeply rewarding for the right person.

Open Shifts:
This is a full-time, 32–40 hours per week position on swing shift (afternoons/evenings and weekends).

Your Opportunity

Becoming a Youth Mentor is more than a job—it is an opportunity to develop leadership, emotional intelligence, and resilience.

You will learn to navigate complex human situations, build trust with struggling adolescents, and contribute to a culture focused on growth and accountability.

This role is ideal for individuals who:

Take extreme ownership of their responsibilities
Seek continuous growth and feedback
Stay calm and solution-focused under pressure
Value team health and collaboration
Believe young people deserve adults who show up consistently and do not quit on them

This role is not a good fit for individuals seeking a quiet shift job or environments with minimal accountability.

Compensation & Benefits

Starting Rate: $20.00 per hour *$17.00 while in orientation*

Growth Opportunities:

Up to $23 per hour for Youth Mentor roles
Performance-based raises every six months based on performance assessments
Additional compensation opportunities for leadership roles
Leadership roles may range from approximately $25–$27 per hour depending on experience and responsibility

Benefits may include:

Retirement plan eligibility after a probationary period with matching up to 6%.
Paid time off accrual after initial employment period.
Health insurance, Dental and Vision options with employer contribution for full-time employees after 60 days of employment.
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) with confidential counseling support
Company-provided life and accidental death & dismemberment insurance

What We Expect From You

We look for individuals who embody the following core principles:

Grit & Composure: Remain steady during emotionally intense situations and respond effectively during crises.
Ownership: Take responsibility for your role, your environment, and student safety.
Growth Mindset: Welcome coaching and actively pursue improvement.
Team Health: Support teammates, communicate respectfully, and repair relationship breaks when they occur.
Solution-Focused Thinking: Identify problems early and work toward constructive solutions.
Relational Leadership: Build trust with students through consistency, fairness, and authentic care.
Curiosity: Seek to understand behavior and continually expand your knowledge of trauma and human development.

A Day in the Life

A typical day as a Youth Mentor includes:

Supporting daily activities and supervising student interactions
Maintaining schedules, boundaries, and therapeutic expectations established by the treatment team
Supporting house leadership to ensure consistency in care and interventions
Responding to crises using de-escalation and trauma-informed techniques
Teaching coping skills and reinforcing program expectations
Maintaining clear and accurate documentation of student progress and incidents
Upholding safety protocols and compliance requirements
Helping maintain a clean, structured, and supportive living environment
Providing steady adult leadership during emotionally intense moments

The Reality of This Role

Working with adolescents who have experienced trauma can be emotionally demanding and unpredictable.

You will encounter moments that require patience, emotional regulation, and teamwork.

This may include:

Supporting students through emotional outbursts
Redirecting unsafe behavior
Managing peer conflict
Staying calm when situations escalate
Receiving coaching and feedback to strengthen your skills

This work is not easy, but it matters deeply.

What Success Looks Like

You will feel successful in this role if you:

Keep students physically and emotionally safe
Maintain composure and professionalism during difficult situations
Take ownership of your role and contribute to a healthy team culture
Build trusting relationships with students who may initially resist connection
Maintain a structured, safe, and welcoming environment within your assigned residence

Qualifications & Experience

High School Diploma or GED required
Minimum age of 20
Ability to pass a background check and TB test
Clean Motor Vehicle Record

Experience in environments characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity is preferred but not required.

This role often attracts individuals with experience in:

Behavioral health
Education
Coaching or athletics
Youth mentorship
Military or first response
