Activities Coordinator

Help Create Experiences That Youth Actually Look Forward To

Make an Impact Every Day

Some people are energized by creating experiences, connecting with others, planning events, building relationships, and helping young people discover their strengths.

At Anderson Health Services, we're looking for an Activities Coordinator who can bring energy, creativity, and positivity to our residential treatment program. You'll help create the activities, experiences, outings, events, and opportunities that make a difference in a young person's life.

Whether you're organizing a basketball tournament, leading a group challenge, planning a community outing, facilitating a life-skills activity, or helping youth find their voice through Youth Council, you'll play an important role in helping young people build confidence, connections, and life skills.

This isn't just an activities job.

It's an opportunity to help youth create memories, discover strengths, and build a brighter future.
