Job Description:
Have you successfully supported your child through an IEP,
probation, mental health, or social services? Are you comfortable
sharing your journey with others? As a Parent Partner for
Collaborative Educational Support (COEDS) in Camarillo, California,
you will use your empathy, respect, and listening skills to help
parents become the best they can be. While you spend time providing
hands-on peer support and helping families navigate community
systems and resources, you will remember the impact you have on the
entire family when the parents feel supported and loved. You will
contribute to the growth of every member of the family and support
them as they thrive in their independent, healthy lives.

when they most need you, which may mean starting your day before
their working hours and ending early or starting your day later and
meeting them during dinnertime. At times when you have resistant
parents, you'll use your relationship, shared life experience, and
interpersonal skills to gain their engagement and commitment.
YOUR QUALIFICATIONS

parent or primary caregiver and have successfully navigated mental
