Additionally, you'll have access to relocation assistance and paid training, ensuring a smooth transition into this unique career path.
We're looking for couples with experience working or volunteering with youth, preferably from under-served settings. Both spouses should be age 27 or older, and no more than three dependent children may reside in the student home. We value integrity and require both spouses to demonstrate a high degree of integrity as all staff are role models for students. High school diploma or GED is required, and both spouses must complete an individual employment application.
Milton Hershey School provides a supportive environment where students can thrive. With a focus on academic excellence and character development, our students receive an exceptional education that prepares them for success. As a flex houseparent, you'll play a vital role in shaping the lives of these young people, providing guidance, support, and care in a family-like structure.
