Join Our Mission as a Youth Advocate at CAPSA!

Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of children, youth, and families? At CAPSA, we're on a mission to create safe homes, empower survivors, and end domestic violence in our community. As a Youth Advocate, you'll play a vital role in helping children and their families heal, grow, and thrive.

What You'll Do:

• Lead Fun & Impactful Groups: Organize engaging lesson plans and activities for children's groups, ensuring learning is fun and meaningful.
• Be a Community Connector: Serve as CAPSA's go-to resource for youth services in Cache and Rich Counties, building strong partnerships and advocating for families.

What We're Looking For:

• A bachelor's degree in social work, childhood development, or a related field is preferred-but passion and experience matter most!
• At least 2 years of experience working with children in social services, education, or crisis settings.
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills, plus a flexible, can-do attitude.
• A commitment to CAPSA's mission, vision, and philosophy of empowerment.

Why Join CAPSA?

• Be Part of a Bigger Purpose: Your work will directly support survivors and their families on their journey to safety and healing.
• Professional Growth: Access training opportunities to expand your skills in trauma-informed care and advocacy.
• Dynamic Environment: No two days are the same, and your contributions will have a lasting impact on children, youth, and families.

This full-time role offers flexible hours, including evening shifts to accommodate group sessions. If you're ready to join a caring, driven team working to change lives, we want to hear from you!
