Family Independence, Inc. is a Greater Boston-area nonprofit dedicated to keeping families safe and together.

We're hiring a Clinician / Clinical Therapist to provide direct clinical services to families and transition-aged youth throughout Greater Boston and surrounding communities. You'll conduct assessments, build treatment plans, and work hand-in-hand with a Therapeutic Mentor to help each family reach its goals.
Independent clinical licensure is not required — this is a strong fit for a clinically skilled, master's-level therapist who wants meaningful, hands-on family work without a large-agency caseload.

● Coordinate with DCF social workers and other providers to support each family's progress

Today Family Independence offers a safe, comprehensive, supervised, structured residential teen living experience for fifteen homeless teen parents, ages 12-21, and their children. We also run an adult shelter program for five young adult parents and their children. Since 1996, over 550 girls have been enrolled.
Family Independence is dedicated to continuing its mission of providing single homeless mothers and their children a stable living environment; focus on the mental health of both mother and child/children; giving the teenagers and young adults an opportunity to complete or continue their education; and to keep families together which, in the long term, benefits everyone in the community. The city of Boston benefits from organizations, like Family Independence, that are there to help improve the lives of its citizens when they need it most.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide hope and stability for at-risk families, children, and youth living in their teen parent program and their adult shelter program.
