Pay Range: $20-$21.25/hour
Location: Springfield, MA
RFK Community Alliance is seeking a compassionate, creative, and motivated Life Coach to join our Young Adult Supported Living (YASL) Program in Springfield, Massachusetts.
In this role, you will empower DCF-referred young adults ages 18-22 as they transition to adulthood and develop the skills, confidence, and independence needed to live successfully in the community. You'll provide individualized coaching, hands-on support, and real-world learning opportunities throughout Western Massachusetts.
About the Young Adult Supported Living Program
RFK's Young Adult Supported Living Program provides DCF-referred young adults ages 18-22 with individualized housing, case management, life-skills development, and experiential learning opportunities designed to prepare them for independent living.
The program serves up to 12 transition-aged young adults, providing a safe and supportive environment where participants can learn, practice, and master essential skills while gradually increasing their independence, self-initiation, and decision-making abilities.
About the Role
The Life Coach works closely with the Program Director and Case Manager to implement the YASL program and support participants from intake through discharge.
The ideal candidate is a self-starter with strong organizational and communication skills who enjoys coaching young adults through a client-centered, strengths-based approach. Creativity, flexibility, cultural responsiveness, and a genuine passion for helping young people succeed are essential.
The Life Coach will maintain a caseload of approximately 12 young adults and help participants establish and maintain stable housing, build independent living skills, connect with community resources, and achieve their personal goals.
Key Responsibilities
  • Serve as a positive role model and collaborative team member while maintaining appropriate professional boundaries.
  • Manage a caseload of approximately 12 young adults in partnership with the Case Manager.
  • Provide individualized, person-centered coaching, support, and modeling focused on engagement, goal-setting, and future planning.

    • Public transportation
    • Time management and organization
    • Problem-solving and decision-making
  • Help young adults build healthy, supportive relationships and connect with and utilize appropriate community resources.
  • Promote healthy lifestyles, wellness practices, and overall self-sufficiency.
  • Ensure participants maintain their apartments in accordance with health and safety standards.
  • Collaborate with the Case Manager to plan and facilitate engaging fun and functional sessions focused on executive functioning and related skills, including planning, organizing, prioritizing, scheduling, time management, task initiation, problem-solving, and effective use of technology.
  • Communicate effectively with participants, families, community providers, and other members of the participant's support team.
  • Maintain timely and accurate documentation of participant progress and make recommendations for additional services when appropriate.
  • Assist young adults in identifying and addressing immediate and long-term needs related to safety, well-being, housing stability, and self-sufficiency.
  • Participate in treatment planning and psychoeducational groups.
  • Attend RFK meetings, trainings, webinars, and YASL-specific meetings and trainings as scheduled.
  • Represent RFK professionally and consistently with agency standards, policies, ethical guidelines, and expectations.

Qualifications
  • Associate degree required, preferably in Human Services, Psychology, Social Work, or a related field.
  • Experience working with youth in out-of-home placements preferred.
  • 1-2 years of experience working with at-risk youth and/or in housing services preferred, but not required.
  • Lived experience with housing insecurity, teen parenting, foster care, or related experiences is valued but not required.
  • Strong self-awareness and the ability to work effectively and respectfully with individuals from diverse cultures, backgrounds, identities, and life experiences.
  • Excellent communication, organization, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills.
  • Valid driver's license, dependable vehicle, and current auto insurance required.
  • Ability to successfully pass required background checks, including CORI.
  • Bilingual skills are a plus.

Schedule
  • Full-time: 40 hours per week
