Employment Opportunities
At this time, CAPA does not have any current job openings. However, from time to time, we may have a part- or full-time opening in our Clinical Services or our Family Support Services areas. Our Clinical Services require the possession of a Master's Degree from an accredited school of counseling, social work, etc. (MSW, LPC or MFT). Family Support Services require a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education, Child and Family Development, Social Work or related area. CAPA does look for experience delivering family support services and/or successful experience teaching child development and parenting skills to adults. Bilingual English/Spanish and persons of diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply. Knowledge of resources in Jackson County, MO and Eastern Jackson County is highly recommended.
Student Intern Opportunities are also available at CAPA at the Master's Level and the Bachelor's Level. Please consult your student placement advisor to discuss your options, or contact CAPA directly should your educational institution not have a placement arrangement with CAPA.
