A little about our selection process…

We fill positions on a rolling basis, which means early applicants will have more choice in service locations and will be notified earlier regarding whether they are accepted. Our sites--elementary schools and preschools--are also involved in making selection decisions. The screening and interview process takes several weeks. You may review a 'road map' of our application and selection process. With the high volume of applicants, we unfortunately do not accept paper applications.
