JOB SUMMARY
The Youth Care Counselor cares for and supervises youth in care in the group home. The Youth Care Counselor must exhibit the intellectual and emotional maturity required to relate to and care for youth who have behavioral issues and difficulty relating to others due to developmental delays, mental health needs and trauma. The position requires respect for and compassionate understanding for the youth in care and the ability to balance the need for nurture and structure in their work with youth. The Youth Care Counselor must have the ability to form and maintain healthy relationships with youth and co-workers, effectively communicate with others, solve problems and regulate their own behavior in all situations. The Youth Care Counselor must maintain a healthy value system, including moral and ethical behavior consistent with the agency's mission and core values.

Develop a relationship with each youth in care and proactively teach self-regulation techniques and acceptable ways to give and receive care.
Know and teach youth the four MCH Rules and 10 MCH Life Skills.
Use the IDEAL approach to discipline and appropriately intervene with youth who exhibit inappropriate behaviors or who need assistance in regulating their behavior.
Work independently and in cooperation with other child care staff to provide a safe, clean, and orderly home for youth in compliance with applicable licensing and accreditation standards.
Supervise youth in care to ensure their safety and well-being and adjust the level of supervision according to the circumstances and needs of the youth.
Ensure youth have the appropriate clothing, shoes, personal care supplies, and hygiene items required for grooming, including encouragement and coaching on maintaining good hygiene.
Help youth express fears and concerns, manage anxiety around family-related issues, and assist in processing daily events, traumatic events and those events related to their placement.
Arrange for and take youth to the doctor, dentist and other appointments.
