Careers

Apply your skills and make new friends in a fun, supportive, purpose-driven environment.

  • At CTF, we believe in having fun with each other and with the people we support.

    We care deeply about the people we support, and about our own team.

    Our paid training makes it easy to get started in this field, or to move up and obtain new licenses and certificates as you go.

    Our team’s work/life balance is a top priority, and our 24/7 operation means most team members have flexibility to transition between different environments and build a schedule that works for them.

    And we never miss an opportunity to celebrate, with employee of the months celebrations, monthly spirit days, a spring fling, and lots more!

    I love the flexibility my job provides: when my children were younger I was able to get to all their school events and sports games.

    If you’re planning a career in the social service field, CTF is a great place to start. There is lots of room for growth and advancement and you will be sure to gain some nice friendships!

    “I have worked as an RN Trainer since 2017 and have always been compassionate about ensuring each of the people we support are provided with the best care possible. 

    CTF provides an environment in both the CILAs and day services that engages each person… from community outings, choir events, art shows, and holiday celebrations. 

    This is a career that provides opportunity for continual learning and allows you to enrich, empower, and ultimately bring joy to each person we support. “

    “After researching several social service organizations, I personally chose to interview at CTF due to the least amount of reported abuse/neglect cases.

    This, to me, meant that the organization invested in the proper amount of training along with good management skills.

    CTF has impacted my life by empowering me to have a huge voice in advocating for the people that I serve, and helping me find a position where I can focus all of my drive and compassion.”
