Employment Opportunity

Company: Right Direction Crisis Intervention
Contact: recruiting@rdas.net
Job Title: Adolescents Interventionist
Website: www.rdas.net

RIGHT DIRECTION is a company that transports at-risks adolescents to treatment programs. We are looking for a few responsible individuals with a flexible schedule looking for a supplemental income. You must have experience with and interest in working with adolescents. You will also need to do a considerable amount of traveling throughout the course of your employment.

JOB DESCRIPTION: As an Adolescent Interventionist, you and a team member will transport at-risk adolescents from one location to another (typically from their home to a treatment program). Right Direction is hired by the parents, who give us signed legal authority, to safely transport their children to pre-arranged therapeutic programs. Most of these teens have emotional issues and can sometimes be very defiant. Safety is the number one concern. You must be aware you might have to restrain the adolescent during the intervention only if the situation arises. We use core body holds and de-escalation techniques to gain control of the situation. Employees will always work in pairs. Quite often, employees are given very little notice of a case; therefore, a flexible schedule is a must. This position is an on call position and in no way full time or part time.

Requirements:
• A minimum age of 21 (must be able to rent a car)
• 1 year experience with adolescents (11-18) or equivalent
• Clearance thru California Trust line Registry or FBI background Check (once-hired)
• Athletically inclined / physically fit
• First Aid/CPR certified (annually) and paid for by company
• Maintain a valid driver’s license
