Social Work Fellows at The Equity Project (TEP) Charter School serve as the facilitators of mental health services for TEP students and families, design and implement (proactive and preventative) programs that promote social and emotional health, and respond to day-to-day student issues and unanticipated crises. Each Social Work Fellow at The Equity Project (TEP) Charter School focuses their efforts on the students, families, and teachers of one specific cohort, while refining their skills and prioritizing their own professional growth.
In this role, you will serve as the Social Work Fellow for one TEP cohort (Kindergarten through 8th Grade), then will move up with this cohort of students throughout their time at TEP until they graduate! This is an amazing opportunity for a creative clinician who thrives in an autonomous environment, is passionate about social justice and child/family work, and is seeking to form long-lasting relationships with students and families as they navigate the road from Kindergarten through adolescence.
Looking to have a significant impact while developing into an expert Clinical Social Worker within a community of master clinicians? This is the role for you.
Early ChildhoodSocial Workers will work in vibrant and colorful spaces that reflect the learning and development that takes place in Kindergarten and 1st grade. Social Workers will support students in developing foundational emotional and social skills within classrooms, as well as private and collaborative Social Work office spaces.
