Why Florence Crittenton?

Definition of Bonding & Attachment
The emotional and physical attachment occurring between a parent or parent figure, especially a mother, and offspring, that usually begins at birth and is the basis for further emotional affiliation.
Florence Crittenton has been serving pregnant and parenting young women since 1896. Over the years the mission of Florence Crittenton has changed to meet the needs of young families. Today the mission of FC is to build healthy and productive lives for pregnant and parenting young women and their babies by being a leading provider of therapeutic residential and outreach services.

At FC we work together as a team. This team includes not only the residents but co-workers, volunteers, our Board and supportive local and state wide community members. As a team we strive to provide a loving, safe environment for every young woman that needs our services. In order to provide these services for our residents we must also provide a loving and safe environment for every staff person, volunteer, board member and donor.

The employees at FC truly believe in the work that they do. We all recognize that we can not change the entire world and we may not immediately see the difference we make for a resident. What we are doing is planting seeds and the seeds we plant today have the potential to grow into something beautiful days, months or years down the road. Florence Crittenton is always looking at new ways to help teach and support its residents. We are using cutting edge therapeutic techniques which help in the areas of bonding, attachment, independent living training, parenting and adoption.

In order to provide the best work place environment for our employees we offer extensive training opportunities, flexible work schedules, vacation, sick and personal leave, health insurance and matching retirement plans. We are always looking for people who have the potential to help strengthen the future of the young women we serve. If you feel that you would be able to act as a positive role model, mentor, disciplinarian and teacher then contact us for further information about becoming a part of the Florence Crittenton Team.

Why I Work For Florence Crittenton Home
 
As a college student at MSU-Northern researching community service programs, I came across an organization that helped pregnant and parenting young moms: Florence Crittenton Home.  I found myself drawn to this program not only because of the services they provide and the history of the organization, but also because I was a single Mom trying to go to college and support my baby.  During that time of my life I struggled with accessing services for young moms, and some of the people who were supposed to be there to help me were judging me instead and treating me poorly.  I often felt frustrated and, at times, humiliated.
I knew I wanted to help young moms so they wouldn’t feel like I did.  Florence Crittenton Home was the perfect place for me.  With my degree in hand, I moved to Helena with the hopes that some day, I might be able to work at my dream job.  There were no positions available at the time so I took another job and waited.  About four months into my new life in Helena, there was an opening for a Program Coordinator/Case Manager at Florence Crittenton Home and I immediately applied.  I started working here in June of 2007, and find it to be everything I imagined and more.  I love coming to work, and feel truly blessed that I can be a part of this incredible organization.
