School Social Worker

School Social Worker

AnthroMed Education is a growing practice of Social Workers aligned with schools throughout the state of Illinois that focuses on Special Education caseloads with pre-K-12th grade schools. Our organization is immediately hiring a School Social Worker for one of our school partners in Villa Park. The SSW will be supporting K-5th grade students at two buildings (It is the same campus, just the buildings are split. -They are two minutes from each other). There is a current full-time SSW who works across both buildings and the team would like to get some more support into the buildings. They may look at splitting the caseload between the schools so that there is a full-time SSW at each building or, they may split the caseload so they each are at both buildings, this is still to be determined. Caseload details are to follow. This role is full-time, onsite through the end of the school year.

We invite all social workers to apply who have a passion and motivation to make a difference in students’ lives! We look forward to speaking with you soon!
