Jobs at Southwest Key Programs

For over 20 years, Southwest Key has been an integral partner in the U.S. response to the immigration crisis at our southern border, sheltering immigrant children under 18 years of age who arrive in this country without a parent or guardian. SWK works to reunify them with a parent, relative or sponsor. 

Most of the youth in our care are between the ages of 13-17, often coming from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador to the U.S. on their own to escape dangerous conditions. During the brief amount of time they are with us, we seek to provide refuge and care to assist in their future success. 

After unification, we work to ensure safety and wellbeing in their new homes while connecting them to community services. staff across 18 states serve youth nationwide who have been referred by ORR through our Home Study and Post Rerelease Programs.
