For over fifty years, New York Junior Tennis & Learning (NYJTL) has honored its founder Arthur Ashe’s legacy by celebrating the diversity of children, encouraging them to reach their highest potential through free tennis and academic programs. NYJTL is the largest provider of youth tennis and education programs in the nation, providing services in 100 unique sites across all five boroughs while reaching nearly 90,000 kids. In addition, NYJTL designed, funded (with NYC), built and operates the Cary Leeds Center for Tennis & Learning in the South Bronx. All NYJTL community tennis and after school programs are offered at no cost to its participants.


The mission of NYJTL is to develop the character of young people through tennis and education for a lifetime of success on and off the court. It believes life skills gained through tennis, academics, healthy living, and character development are a catalyst for long-term achievement. 

Position Summary

NYJTL is seeking a compassionate and skilled Part-Time Social Worker to support student emotional wellness, social-emotional development, and inclusive participation in our afterschool programs. This is an on-site role assigned to one afterschool site, Monday through Thursday, for a total of 12 hours per week. Candidates should be available from 2:30-5:30PM, with some site-based flexibility depending on program needs. This role focuses on brief student support, SEL programming, staff coaching, family engagement, crisis response, disability inclusion support, and collaboration with school-day partners. The Part-Time Social Worker will help nurture a positive, trauma-informed, inclusive afterschool culture and support students through individual check-ins, small group sessions, family communication, safety and support planning, accommodation support, and referrals to outside resources when appropriate.


The Part-Time Social Worker will collaborate closely with the Program Site Director, who will serve as the direct on-site supervisor. The Social Work Manager will provide reflective supervision, ongoing training, and support around social work practice, documentation, inclusion-related support, and program deliverables. The Part-Time Social Worker will also participate in professional development focused on topics such as de-escalation, trauma-informed care, disability inclusion, universal design, professional boundaries, group management, restorative practices, mandated reporting, and effective staff coaching.

  • Assist with individualized student support planning, including accommodations, behavior supports, or Individualized Accommodation Plans when needed
  • Participate in or support cooperative dialogue with families, caregivers, school-day staff, and site leadership when appropriate, ensuring conversations are strengths-based, culturally responsive, and documented

  • Support trust-building with families who may be hesitant to share disability-related information, IEPs, diagnoses, or family needs, while recognizing that disclosure is voluntary and should not be pressured

Staff Training & Coaching

  • Train and coach after school staff on trauma-informed care, restorative practices, positive behavior strategies, mental health awareness, disability inclusion, de-escalation, and group management
  • Provide modeling, observation feedback, and reflective support to help staff respond to student needs effectively
  • Support staff in understanding mandated reporting procedures, documentation expectations, accommodation-related responsibilities, and appropriate response protocols

Data, Documentation & DYCD Compliance

  • Maintain accurate records of services, including student interactions, group sessions, family contacts, referrals, incident follow-up, accommodation-related support, and case notes
  • Complete required documentation using internal tracking systems, case note systems, Microsoft Excel, and other assigned tools
  • Use documentation, assessment data, interaction tracking, and student support trends to identify student needs, inform program improvements, and guide targeted interventions
  • Support documentation related to individualized accommodation planning, cooperative dialogue, attempted interventions, family communication, and follow-up steps when applicable

Collaboration & Team Participation

  • Partner closely with Program Directors and site teams to identify student needs, strengthen programming, and support inclusive student participation
  • Collaborate with school-day teams, caregivers, community partners, and the site Inclusion Coordinator when appropriate to support student success
