About The Position
The Parenting Partner/Mentor provides active, hands-on peer support to a caseload of parent/caregivers of children and youth receiving services in three counties (Manatee, Sarasota, and Desoto). Parenting partner/Mentor support may be delivered in individual or group settings at the agency, in family homes, or in community environments. The role of the Parenting Partner/Mentor is to provide peer support but also to work collaboratively to support systems change by increasing family involvement and decreasing unintentional, bias about parents. Provides guidance based on a combination of evidence-based/evidence-informed training and personal firsthand experience and lived expertise. Empowering and coaching parents through the process with DCF, child Welfare, the courts, and other family centered community partners is an important aspect of this work.
