Help teenage girls in a therapeutic setting as they progress on their healing journey. Located near Three Peaks Recreational Park and overlooking Cedar City, Utah, Discovery Ranch for Girls is a relationship-based residential treatment center based in experiential therapy.

As our English Teacher's Aide, you will support our Teachers in providing English curriculum instruction to our middle and high school age students. Additionally, you will be assigned as an advisor to meet weekly with a few students to help them feel supported as they make academic progress because it is important that our students continue to grow and succeed academically, even while they are in treatment. At Discovery Ranch for Girls, we believe in a holistic approach: we address not just our students' emotional needs, but also their physical, intellectual, environmental, and social ones. Therefore you will work closely with our Academic Director, Teachers and other academic staff, and coordinate with other departments to ensure we are providing our students with consistent, quality instruction and working together as a unified team.

Often the relationships formed one-on-one, such as with TAs, are the most meaningful to our students and essential to creating deep and lasting change. Being on a committed, close-knit team and helping girls who really need you will be your most rewarding and inspiring job yet.

We Serve families, and help empower young women. Come be a part of the healing journey.
