About the role:

DCC is seeking an experienced professional with a background in youth and forensic disability support to work with an adolescent client in a single-tenancy residential setting transitioning to adulthood.

A trauma-informed approach and willingness to work within therapeutic frameworks
Ability to remain calm, reflective, and responsive during challenging situations
Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively as part of a multidisciplinary team
Willingness to complete and apply Team Teach and TCI training
