College Campus Companion / Executive Function Assistant

About the job

We are seeking a reliable, compassionate, and organized individual to serve as a Campus Companion for a bright and capable college student with Asperger's syndrome in Peoria, IL. The student is exceptionally intelligent (IQ 145+), kind, motivated, eager to engage, and good-natured. While he presents as a typical student in most respects, he struggles with interpreting social cues and managing executive functioning tasks such as organization, planning, and time management. The Campus Companion will provide day-to-day guidance and encouragement, helping the student stay organized, and socially connected while navigating college life. This is a hands-on, mentorship-style role designed to foster independence, confidence, and continued academic success. Great opportunity for someone exploring careers in psychology, education, or counseling.
