What is a parenting coordinator?

Parenting Coordinators are trained professionals, often with backgrounds in law, psychology, or social work, who help separated or divorced parents resolve conflicts about their children outside of court. They work with families to implement parenting plans, improve communication, and reduce tension, always prioritizing the best interests of the children. Parenting Coordinators can make minor decisions when parents can't agree, but major decisions remain with the court. Their main goal is to minimize conflict and help families co-parent more effectively.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a parenting coordinator?

To thrive as a Parenting Coordinator, you need a background in psychology, social work, law, or a related field, often supported by specialized certification or training in family mediation. Familiarity with court systems, conflict resolution tools, and case management software is typically expected. Strong interpersonal skills, neutrality, and the ability to manage high-conflict situations diplomatically help set outstanding professionals apart. These skills and qualities are essential for facilitating effective communication, ensuring child-focused decisions, and supporting families through complex custody issues.

What challenges do parenting coordinators face when working with high-conflict families, and how are these managed?

Parenting Coordinators often encounter challenges such as strong emotional reactions, ongoing parental disputes, and resistance to suggested co-parenting solutions. To manage these situations, coordinators rely on structured communication protocols, clear boundaries, and evidence-based conflict resolution techniques. Regular documentation and transparent communication with both parents are essential. Additionally, Parenting Coordinators may collaborate with legal professionals and mental health experts to ensure that the children's best interests remain the focus throughout the process.

Who We Are:

BAMSI has been “bringing people and services together” since 1975. Through the Parent Information Network (PIN), we provide family‑driven, peer‑based support to parents and caregivers raising children with mental health needs. Our work centers lived experience, empowerment, and connection—helping families navigate complex systems while building community and resilience.

• Lived Experience Matters: Your insight as a parent or caregiver is valued as professional expertise.
• Meaningful Impact: Help families feel less alone and more confident navigating mental health systems.
• Flexible, Community‑Based Work: Support families in ways that reflect real‑life needs—not a rigid 9–5 model.
• Mission‑Driven Program: Be part of a team focused on connection, empowerment, and advocacy.

What You’ll Do:

The Parent Coordinator provides family‑driven, non‑clinical support grounded in lived experience. This role focuses on empowering parents and caregivers of youth with mental health needs through peer support, education, and connection to resources.

Schedule & Flexibility:

• Flexible, community‑based schedule
• Hours may vary week to week based on family and program needs
• Includes a mix of daytime, evening, and occasional weekend hours
• Designed to meet families where they are—not limited to a traditional 9–5 schedule

What You Bring:

• Required: Lived experience as a parent or caregiver of a youth with mental health needs
• Required: Residency in Southeast Massachusetts
• Strong communication and relationship‑building skills
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively as part of a team
• Passion for supporting families and strengthening communities

Why This Role Matters:

As a Parent Coordinator, you will help families feel supported, understood, and empowered while navigating complex systems. Your lived experience will directly impact how families access care, advocate for their children, and build stronger support networks.
