Are you looking for rewarding work with adults with different abilities in the community? UCP, a growing human services agency, works with people with different abilities and their families throughout western Massachusetts in their homes and in the community. AWC is a person-centered program which allows participants to craft their own customized Day Program. As an AWC Family Support Advocate you will provide help with activities of daily living (eating and going out into the community) with socialization and engagement as priorities. Your day may include time spent in the community, at the home or any other location that both the member and family deem appropriate as you help the member navigate areas of importance such as hobbies, activities or interests in addition to providing guidance around needed life skills. Some afternoon and evening hours are required. This role requires someone who will adhere to a fragrance/scent free policy due to sensitivities.
