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.

This is a two-person job for couples who have been legally married for at least two years

Both spouses should be age 27 or older

No more than three dependent children may reside in the student home

Abide by a smoke-free and weapon-free campus. No alcohol is permitted while on duty
