Development Manager

JOB DESCRIPTION

Anchor House Ministries is a Christian child welfare ministry committed to helping youth and young men and women in crisis. AHM strives to provide a safe, secure, and nurturing environment to youth (ages 12-17), who have been referred to us by the State of Florida or private counselors. The young adult program for ages 18 - 24 serves young men and women who have aged out of foster care and need support. Residents end up at Anchor House for many reasons. Some have been orphaned, abandoned, neglected, or abused. Others are simply struggling to find their way in life. AHM staff works with residents through the treatment team, educational assessment, individual counseling, life skills training, and by simply meeting their basic human needs of nurture, food, and shelter. The team focuses on the healing of the youth, so that they can manage their own emotions and build healthy relationships. The goal is family reunification or adoption, when possible, while other youth are prepared to safely navigate the transition into an adult life of independence and self-sufficiency.
