Full Job Description

Description:

If you are looking for a place where you can make a difference in the life of a child, Project Harmony is looking for you. We are seeking an experienced and committed MATYS Specialist to join our dynamic and innovative organization. This position focuses primarily on working with youth and young adults (up to 24 yrs.) who are at high risk of sexual exploitation/trafficking and their caregivers.

This position will provide crisis intervention, safety planning, and other support services to this population of youth, young adults, and their families.
