What does the day-to-day job look like?
It’s going to depend on what program you’re a part of and who you’re working with that day. Every person who we serve at RTI has their own individual strengths and their areas where they need help.

Depending on what program you’re in, you might be able spend a lot of time helping just a couple of individuals (and becoming a significant person in their lives) or you might work with a larger number of people (10-15) and spend shorter, more focused times helping them work toward their goals.
