Under a grant from the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), NYAP's Home Study (HS) Caseworkers complete in-person visits to sponsor family homes. They conduct in-depth assessments of the potential sponsor's ability to ensure the child's safety and well-being, conduct face-to-face interviews with sponsors, other household members, and initiate background checks. HS Caseworkers must have experience in conducting HS according to the requirements in the state where services are being provided. They must be skilled at writing professional, thorough assessment reports. HS caseworkers must have knowledge of local community social services and should have specialized experience in conducting home studies and working with immigrant populations. Additionally, HS caseworkers should be knowledgeable about family preservation, kinship care, and/or general child welfare. Required travel includes in-person visits to sponsor family homes.
