Grow with us at Wilder, where community and care come first.
We believe all people deserve the opportunity to thrive. Every day, our teams walk alongside children, families, and all members of our communities as they build stability, wellness, and possibility. But we also believe something just as important. Supporting whole families begins with supporting the whole person — including you. When you join Wilder, you join a community rooted in purpose, belonging, and shared commitment.
Our work spans direct services, advocacy, and research, strengthening families and advancing equity across our communities. Whether you’re working directly with families, conducting research, supporting operations, or leading strategy, you’ll work alongside people who care about the work and about one another. At Wilder, we’re Here for Good. You won’t just find colleagues. You’ll find partners in purpose.
We know that strong communities are built from diverse perspectives, lived experiences, and voices that have been historically underrepresented. At Wilder, we are committed to equity in our practices, our leadership, and our culture. Belonging isn’t a buzzword here. It’s a responsibility we take seriously.
We strive to create a workplace where people feel seen, heard, and respected, differences are valued as strengths, growth is supported and encouraged, and accountability and compassion coexist. Grow with us at Wilder, where community and care come first.
Our philosophy is whole family centered. And that doesn’t stop at the families we serve.
We support our employees as whole people who have responsibilities, ambitions, health needs, and dreams outside of work. There is no waiting period for benefits — eligible employees receive health and dental coverage starting on their first day. Our Total Rewards package includes competitive pay and benefits with health and dental coverage, paid leave, retirement savings with employer match, wellness programs, and more.
We believe in developing leaders at every level. Whether you’re starting your career or bringing decades of experience, you’ll find opportunities to learn, lead, and give back with tuition assistance, skill-building programs, and support for your ongoing education. We invest in your professional growth because your development strengthens the families and communities we serve.
