Human Services Careers: Much Faster Than Average Growth
In an economy where jobs are disappearing or barely holding constant, the human services field is expected to grow over 22%1, outstripping the average of all other career growth. A master’s degree is essential to higher-paying, higher-level careers in human services, and can be applied to a wide field of job functions and disciplines:
• Clinical administration and management
• Community outreach
• Early childhood education
• Family studies
• Faith-based service providers
• Gerontology
• Home-based or institutional health care
• Marriage and family therapy
• Mental health
• Nutrition
• Public health
As a human services professional, you help weave the social safety net that protects people from financial and emotional catastrophe. Human services jobs can include operating a food pantry, managing a community clinic, advocating policy to a legislative body or improving the nutritional content of a meals program. Whether you see yourself at a grassroots or managerial level, if you have a passion for helping individuals and communities at risk, a career in human services can be personally and professionally rewarding.
