In addition, the applicant needs to have experience dealing with risk factors associated with poverty, trauma, substance abuse history, socio-emotional difficulties, broken homes, and a lack of adult role models. As no one person has all the necessary skills and training, extensive connection and collaboration with other community services programs is a must.

The program will work to build on relationships built through the Family Investment Center’s after school program for elementary aged students. The program will focus on giving our older students the resources to build on their academic abilities, social skills and extra-curricular activities.
The ability to work with minimal supervision and to work effectively and establish a positive rapport with KIHA residents, staff and community members is mandatory.
