Flex houseparents provide a consistent family-like structure for students and handle responsibilities such as driving, administering medication, budgeting, reporting, etc. When initially hired, flex houseparents cover different student homes before being assigned to one specific home.

  • Comprehensive benefits : medical, dental, and vision insurance; health savings and flexible spending accounts; life insurance; disability options; retirement savings
