P/T Therapist
You Gotta Believe (YGB) is a New York City-based, national organization specializing in finding permanent families for young adults, teens, and pre-teens in foster care. YGB focuses exclusively on preventing youth from aging out of foster care without family; thus reducing the risk of homelessness, incarceration, and poverty due to a lack of stable connections. Founded in 1995, YGB achieves this mission by collaborating with foster care organizations to recruit, match, and provide indefinite, comprehensive support to adoptive foster parents and youth. Reporting to the Director of Clinical Services, the Therapist is responsible for providing adoption-competent clinical services to YGB families to facilitate attachment and bonding, decrease family conflict, and decrease the risk of disruption.
