The Adolescent and Family Services (AFS) Clinic is seeking passionate and dedicated Counselors to join our dynamic and supportive team. This unique role offers the opportunity to provide substance use and mental health services to youth aged 10–24 in a variety of settings, including local high schools, our clinic, and throughout the community via a mobile treatment van.

Applicants who are not yet certified as a CADC or QMHA will receive support to obtain these credentials as part of their employment.
