2 About Virtuous Boss and The Love Project Virtuous Boss is a purpose-driven education and consulting organization committed to empowering individuals, families, school systems, and communities through innovative education, training, and wraparound services. The Love Project (TLP) is a trauma-informed, evidence-based relationship education and career readiness initiative serving high school youth ages 14 to 18. Through structured programming, mentorship, and skill-building, TLP helps young people develop healthy relationships, emotional resilience, and future planning skills. Position Overview Virtuous Boss is seeking two compassionate, reliable, and culturally responsive Trusted Adult Mentors to serve youth participants in The Love Project. Mentors play a vital role in building safe, consistent, and supportive relationships with high school youth while facilitating evidence-based curriculum and providing ongoing guidance throughout the program cycle. This role requires flexibility, strong interpersonal skills, and a genuine commitment to youth development. Hours and scheduling will vary depending on program phase and school site. Candidates must be available to adapt their schedule across summer and fall programming. Program Schedule and Hour Commitment We are looking for approximately 3-6 part-time mentors to support the fall and winter program, with opportunities available during school hours (9:00 AM-2:30 PM) and after-school hours (3:30 PM-5:30 PM). Candidates do not need to be available for both time blocks. Fall and winter sessions will be scheduled around school programming. After-school sessions typically run from approximately 3:30 to 5:30 PM , with mentors expected to arrive at least 20 minutes before students are released. Session times may vary by school site. Candidates must be flexible with scheduling as program hours will shift depending on the school partner, time of year, and program phase. This is not a rigid 9-to-5 role and requires a mentor who can adapt as the program evolves. Key Responsibilities Build a safe, consistent, and supportive mentoring relationship with assigned youth participants throughout the program cycle. Facilitate evidence-based workshops and curriculum sessions with high school youth during scheduled program hours. Conduct regular individual or small group check-ins to help youth reflect on workshop content and apply learning to their lives. Attend all required orientation, training, and professional development sessions prior to and during the program. Participate in campaign projects, showcases, and milestone celebrations to encourage youth engagement and achievement. Communicate proactively with program staff to share observations, flag concerns, and support goal-setting for individual youth. Maintain appropriate professional boundaries and uphold all safety, confidentiality, and mandatory reporting protocols at all times. Accurately track youth participation and submit brief check-in summaries and documentation as required. Participate in periodic reflection, debrief, and supervision sessions with program staff. Complete data entry and required documentation in accordance with program timelines and guidelines. Qualifications Experience working with youth in education, counseling, mentoring, coaching, or community engagement settings is required. Strong interpersonal communication, active listening, and empathy skills. Culturally aware and able to build meaningful, trusting relationships with diverse youth populations. Reliable, punctual, and committed to providing consistent support throughout the full program cycle. Flexible availability across daytime, afterschool, and evening hours depending on program phase and school site. Access to reliable transportation; ability to travel to Prince George's County school sites is required. Successful completion of a background check required prior to hire. Prior trauma-informed care training is preferred but not required. Experience working with male youth populations is strongly preferred. Bilingual candidates, particularly Spanish-speaking, are strongly encouraged to apply. Availability Requirements All candidates will be asked to confirm the following during the initial phone screen: Are you available to commit a minimum of 10 hours per week prior to the program start for training and preparation? Are you available for afterschool hours, approximately 3:30 -5:30 pm or during school hours? Candidates do not need to be available for both time blocks.
