Houseparent

Sunnybrook’s Vision
Every child and youth in Mississippi will experience the advantages associated with growing up in a healthy Christian family environment.
Mission
Sunnybrook provides support to foster parents and children, while also preparing older youth to succeed in life by developing independence through education, job training, self-discipline, and a strong Christian foundation.
Sunnybrook has provided homes, hope, and healing to Mississippi’s children for more than 60 years. Over the past year we have adjusted our care to concentrate on older youth through our Transitional Living Program (TLP). Through the TLP, individuals between the ages of 14 and 20 are guided to become productive citizens through workforce development training and daily living skills instruction as they are immersed in Christian community and discipleship.
Sunnybrook is seeking fulltime live in Houseparent(s). The Houseparent’s primary responsibility is to teach, care for, and lead the youth in their house. All our houses are located on our gated campus in Ridgeland, MS. Because our houseparents have some of the greatest influence on our residents, we provide them with support, respite, off time, training, and community so that they may pour themselves into the lives of our youth. The position is fulltime, requiring residency in the house, and includes a generous salary and benefits package; $45,000 per fulltime individual. If you have the passion and experience of investing in the lives of young people please contact Myrle Grate, mgrate@sunnyboorkms.org.
If you are interested in joining our team, please contact me at mgrate@sunnybrookms.org.
Sincerely,
Myrle Grate
