Why work for Casa?
Join a team of professionals committed to seeing every child in Houston grow up in a safe and supportive home that gives them hope.
Supportive community.
Anyone who has worked in child welfare, no matter the role, will tell you that it can be difficult to leave work at work. We offer generous benefits, mental health resources, and a tight-knit professional community to help you shoulder the load of this challenging work.
Manageable caseload.
Smaller caseloads mean you have more time to spend working building individual relationships with each child or parent.
Meaningful work.
In addition to families referred to us by CPS, we work with many families who voluntarily seek out our services to strengthen and protect their family unit. This means that our work can serve as life-altering intervention that keeps families out of the legal system.
Generous benefits.
We offer a generous benefits package that includes insurance plans, 401k, 2 weeks vacation, paid parental leave, and more.
