Hands of Hope AmeriCorps Members provide direct care and supervision to children in foster care placement at one of seven houses in the Casa de Esperanza Neighborhood. AmeriCorps Members live with other AmeriCorps Members in one of Casa de Esperanza’s residences and are expected to abide by all policies and residential guidelines. This is a residential position and all AmeriCorps Members live on-site in their assigned household to care for the children, ages 0-6, as a team. Member weekly schedules are worked out in advance with supervisors but generally will follow a rotation of either 7:00 am – 3:00 pm or 3:00 pm – 11:00 pm. On occasion, members may serve from 11:00pm to 7:00am, but this only occurs in emergency or unique situations.
