      About the Program and Position:

      Our Home Study and Post Release Services (HS/PRS) program is dedicated to making a significant impact on the lives of unaccompanied children aged 0- 17 ½. Referred through shelters or trusted foster care providers, these children rely on our continuous support throughout their journey from the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) to their parents or sponsors. We can guide and empower these children and sponsors through an unfamiliar system, which makes a great difference.
      Under the supervision of the Director of Support, the Case Aides will provide support to the children in the program by expanding their range of community resources to meet their needs. Success in this role includes flexibility and the understanding that day to day activities may change and this individual must be open and available to assist in any way needed to support the children in the program.
