This full-time, hourly position requires reliable personal transportation and a valid driver's license, as driving is essential to conducting home visits, attending community meetings, and coordinating services throughout Los Angeles County.

What You'll Do

• Complete structured assessments (e.g., VI-SPDAT) to guide prioritization and resource matching
• Identify, refer, and link clients to healthcare, mental health, social services, and community resources; follow up to ensure engagement and progress
• Conduct 90-day reviews to assess progress, celebrate wins, adjust goals, and sustain client momentum
• Provide crisis intervention and safety planning; equip clients with coping strategies and independent problem-solving skills
• Apply trauma-informed and motivational interviewing approaches in all client interactions
• Maintain timely, complete, accurate case documentation in compliance with HIPAA and organizational standards
• Cultivate strong working relationships with colleagues, clients, and partner organizations to coordinate wrap-around care

What You'll Bring

• Analytical skills and attention to detail: Synthesize information, identify needs and patterns, and produce clear, thorough documentation
• Collaboration: Work effectively with colleagues, supervisors, clients, and external partners; value diverse perspectives and contribute to team success
• Communication: Explain services, build trust, and convey information clearly both verbally and in writing across diverse audiences
• Creativity and initiative: Develop personalized solutions to individual challenges; take ownership and suggest improvements without waiting for direction
• Critical thinking: Evaluate situations, weigh alternatives, anticipate obstacles, and make sound decisions about priorities and resource allocation
• Professional ethics and integrity: Maintain confidentiality, act with honesty and transparency, and model the values you expect from colleagues and clients
