About the position
A typical day as a WHS Human Services Tech with the Youth Team is about providing a safe and caring respite environment where youth can thrive while their parents/caregivers are engaging in their own self-care. You will work with clients in 2 hour increments individually or via group setting in their home, community or main WHS building. We are looking for applicants who will demonstrate boundaries, while interacting in warm, welcoming, and engaging activities with clients at all times. You will need to resolve conflicts that may arise during respite and seek supervisory assistance when needed.

Transportation of clients will be necessary; therefore, you will need a valid Utah driver license. You will also need CPR/First Aid and a Food Handler's Permit, which we will pay for once you begin employment.
