Mentor Couples for Youth Development

Milton Hershey School is an exceptional private school where students from disadvantaged backgrounds receive an education with housing, meals, and more – all costs covered. We are seeking married couples to become flex houseparents, providing a family-like structure for students and handling responsibilities such as driving, administering medication, budgeting, reporting, etc.

As a flex houseparent, you will cover different student homes before being assigned to one specific home. You will work nine days on followed by three days off, with a period of personal time while students are at school. You will also enjoy three-week paid summer vacation and relocation assistance.

We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including salary of $43,825 per person, total compensation package of approximately $150,000 per couple, which includes free housing, meals while on duty, utilities, and more. Benefits also include medical, dental, and vision insurance, health savings and flexible spending accounts, life insurance, disability options, and retirement savings.

Responsibilities include guiding students, managing daily responsibilities, and participating in their overall development. You must have 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 are looking for couples who are comfortable leading students in daily devotions and taking them to Judeo-Christian Sunday chapel services. A high school diploma or GED is required, and you must be able to lift up to 50 lbs. Candidates must demonstrate a high degree of integrity, as all staff are role models for students.

This is a unique career path that takes consideration and commitment from both spouses. If you are interested in making a significant impact in the lives of students, we encourage you to apply.
