The Behavioral Aide is responsible for on-site coordination of active treatment at our Valor Place (open-residential) program in Detroit, Michigan. Youth may have behavioral challenges and may have been discharged from a psychiatric placement and/or are at risk for psychiatric hospitalization; oftentimes, the child is stepping down to a less restrictive environment. Behavior Aides work independently on assigned shifts, providing behavioral support services through mentoring, day respite, supervising parent visitation, filing, calling providers, completing paperwork, and completing all other duties assigned.
Dignity and respect are simple human gifts belonging to all. Since 1976, Spectrum has worked to strengthen children, families, and communities across Michigan. Each day, more than 1,450 children, teens, and adults who deal with mental, physical, emotional, and/or behavioral challenges find help in a Spectrum program. And we are gratified they do.
