HOUSE MENTORS JOB DESCRIPTION (ROLES AND DUTIES)

PATH2FREEDOM, INC. 

Safe House Program – November 2019

HOUSE MENTORS JOB DESCRIPTION (ROLES AND DUTIES) 

The House Mentors set the tone in the Safe House for girls that are coming with high Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Even though there is a change of shift during the week – the Mentors are the “foundation” of the Safe House. It is extremely important for the Mentors to show a heart of unconditional love and showing a lot of grace for girls that have not been taught how to manage their feelings and emotions. The level of stress that these young girls have been through is said to be equal to “Victims of War”. That is the reason for instituting the rehabilitation program as the “Path2Freedom Non-Punitive System Model,” which is not without consequences but is without punishment. The girls are brainwashed by the “Trauma Bonding of the Trafficker/s.” This Magnolia Model is a “Transforming Model” for highly-stressed children and “Our goal is to teach the girls God’s family structure” To love, respect and honor each other. House Mentors will be the role model. This is a victim service model developed for “highest and best response toward PTSD child victims.” We use the failures as “teachable moments and behavior modification techniques.” As the girl begin to take root and feel safe in the Safe House and begin to develop attachments toward the staff and others, we gradually give them more responsibilities. On the job training is the best training tool where real life situations present themselves each day. Even though the Mentors/staff is given advanced training, the best learning comes while on duty and consulting with the Executive Director, Staff and the Team for solutions, rather than a quick response/solution. Path2Freedom does not want to “contain the girls” but rather, “renew the heart of the girls through unconditional love and role modeling.” Upon leaving the program, they truly understand how to move forward and control their emotions and this enables them to live a normal life.

A few fun facts:

• There are more school and clinical mental health counseling jobs available in Southwest Florida right now than we have available professionals.
• Most of our graduates are hired before they even graduate! All of our students seeking jobs are hired within 3 months of graduation -- MOST before graduation, some right afterwards.
• The FGCU graduate program in school counseling is DOE approved and both the school counseling and clinical mental health counseling programs are CACREP accredited. This is a big deal. It means that you can get to work right away and your degree is highly portable.
• Typically students attend their courses in the early evenings so you would not have to quit your day job.
• Several of our courses are "blended" or "hybrid." This means that some traditional face-to-face classes are replaced by online learning activities. This way, we can take advantage of the best features of both face-to-face and online learning.
• The department offers a dual major track for students who aspire to become both licensed as clinical mental health counselors and certified school counselors.
• The Department of Counseling also offers a certificate in Marriage, Couples, and Family counseling.
• School Counseling: Graduates from this program work in public and private schools that serve PK-12 students and some work in postsecondary institutions including career and technical centers, special training programs for youth, colleges, and universities.
• Clinical Mental Health Counseling: Graduates from this program work in community agencies, mental health settings, and private practices after graduation and most seek and achieve licensure.
• The department recently received a $1 million dollar grant which we will be using to develop an on-campus counseling center as well as fund professional development opportunities for students. This center is scheduled to open in November 2019.
• The Department offers a standard plan of study for students who are working and an accelerated plan of study for students who can take on a greater work load and finish in two years.
