Job description

Shiloh is a community-based residential and day treatment program located near Pearland. Our facility serves severely mentally ill children and adolescents as well as those with intellectual disabilities and Autism spectrum disorder.

The hallmark of treatment is normalization, a family-style service approach and residential homes in a rural neighborhood.
