The posting

Harlem Children’s Zone (HCZ) — a world-renowned education and poverty-fighting organization based in New York — seeks an enthusiastic, dedicated, and mission-aligned Family Worker for our Baby College & 3-Year-Old Journey Program.

The Family Worker will bring a passion for the mission of Harlem Children’s Zone: break the cycle of intergenerational poverty with comprehensive, on-the-ground programming that builds up opportunities for children and families to thrive in school, work, and life.

The Baby College, which is a critical piece of our early intervention work, is a program that addresses the needs of young children and families through a nine-week series of parenting workshops for expecting parents and those raising a child up to three years old. Workshops and classes are held on Saturday mornings, and all services are free. Families receive breakfast, lunch, incentives, and child care during the nine-week program, which covers a broad range of subjects, including brain development, discipline, immunization, safety, asthma, lead poisoning, parental stress, and parent-child bonding, among many others. The primary goal of The Baby College is to provide families with both a range of information and the support necessary to raise happy and healthy children who enter school ready to learn.

We are seeking a Family Worker to provide direct counseling, assistance, and support to our children and families.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing
