Child Development Specialists work with CPS social workers at intake to supervise the children in a supportive, caring environment. This helps to reduce the impact of the separation for the child from their family. Volunteer/intern receives supervision and guidance by working alongside with Child Development Specialists. Main duties are to engage and supervise children of all age in activities, movies, crafts, or games; prepare snacks, observe behaviors, and provide emotional support to children.
