Jamestown Community Learning Council's (JCLC) mission is to strengthen the capacity of families to nurture, support, and provide for their child's academic development, emotional growth and physical well-being by establishing effective relationships between home and school.
JCLC has been providing home visiting services that support families across Chautauqua County for over 30 years using the Parents as Teachers (PAT) home visiting model. PAT curriculum is based on neuroscience, with the understanding that a child is "born to learn" and that a parent is a child's first and best teacher.
Using the Parents as Teachers (PAT) curriculum, a Home Visitor supports families by focusing on parent-child interactions, development centered parenting and family well-being. In a culturally sensitive way, the Home/School Liaison partners, facilitates, and reflects with families to help them reach their goals and understand they are their child's first and best teacher.
This 30 hr/week position follows the Southwestern Central School District calendar. We offer paid training in the PAT curriculum and home visiting model, 10 days PTO and paid holidays.
