Work with Us

Reporting to the Assistant Director of Youth Services, the Youth Care Coordinator is responsible for providing supportive services to minor victims of labor and sex trafficking in the East Tennessee service region. The Youth Care Coordinator serves as a case manager, advocate, and educator for youth and their family system using person-centered relational skills, leveraging peer networks and community resources to help navigate the complexities of the human trafficking experience.

The Youth Care Coordinator is an intensive role, responsible for: activating support resources, facilitating psychoeducation on the effects and manifestations of trauma to the youth, their caregivers, and other care providers, and advocating for youth voice and best interest within a system of care. The Youth Care Coordinator provides authentic, intentional support services that meet the high standard of the CCAHT values and service model.

Community Coalition Against Human Trafficking (CCAHT), works to unite and equip Knoxville and upper East Tennessee to end modern-day slavery while providing survivors of human trafficking with individualized, relational care through our program Grow Free Tennessee. We accomplish our mission through four primary initiatives: raising overall awareness; training and equipping primary responders; bolstering intervention efforts via our locally focused, collaborative, counter-trafficking task force; and providing wraparound aftercare services to survivors.

At CCAHT, we choose love first. When it comes to serving our clients, we understand that healing takes time. Each client’s needs and journey toward restoration will be different, which is why our aftercare programming is survivor-centered and grounded in industry best practices and research. We know that it takes people to serve people, and we are seeking a passionate, qualified individual to join our team as we work to empower survivors and foster positive change in East Tennessee.
