Dear Ms. Logan,

I am pleased to submit my resume to be considered for the Child and Youth Worker position with your team. In addition to a master-level education and training in counseling, my more than 3 year history of hands-on experiences make me an excellent match for the demands of this opportunity. In each of my previous roles as a C

hild and Youth Worker , I have helped students‰Û’in cooperation with their guardians and teachers‰Û’to understand and overcome obstacles affecting their social, educational, and long-term achievement.

Please review these points from my professional background which represent the absolute value I can offer Wiley Middle School:

• Post Secondary Education and Career Guidance
• Sharp Middle School Career and Cultural Youth Summit: 46-50% of attendees reported increased understanding of career options and a motivation to attend college
• Special Education
• Well-versed in addressing the needs of students with ADHA, ADD, ESL, anti-social, depression, and learning disorders (reading/math)
• Group Counseling and Student Advocacy
• Facilitated bullying and Girl Power groups; solid experience in working with disadvantaged, at-risk youth facing multicultural issues

My attached a resume that provides additional information on my background and qualifications. It is my goal to work with a team that shares my dedication to the growth and advancement of students competitively prepared for postsecondary education and life in the 21st century. I welcome the opportunity to schedule a meeting with you to discuss the available Child and Youth Worker role and the contributions I can make to your counseling program.

Sincerely,

Arlie Maddox
