About the Team

Our programs include Case Management, Adult Community Clinical Services (ACCS), Program of Assertive Community Treatment (PACT), and outpatient services.

About the Role
We are seeking an experienced clinician (LICSW) to lead one of our state-operated ACCS teams.

As the Team Leader, you will champion trauma-informed, person-centered care. Your day will involve supporting staff in assessments and treatment planning, ensuring interventions utilize evidence-based best practices, and overseeing the timely completion of documentation and billing. You will foster a therapeutic atmosphere that promotes recovery, individual growth, and the integration of the Eight Dimensions of Wellness. This position requires balancing clinical oversight with administrative duties, such as conducting utilization reviews, managing performance improvement initiatives, and responding to crisis situations with immediate, appropriate interventions.

The pre-hire process includes a criminal background check as required by the Executive Office of Health and Human Services, and verification of all education, licensure, and certifications in accordance with Human Resources Division guidelines.
