OCP is Hiring !!!
Case Management Supervisor
OCP is hiring for the position of Case Management Supervisor. We are flexible on how this position is implemented. We could use a person with a BSW or MSW degree or significant experience doing case management, especially with the homeless population. The position could be part time, temporary, or full time and permanent. If full time and permanent, this position would supervise the case management team and social work field students from local universities. Case managers assist our community members (clients) to identify and meet their life goals, whether getting needed ID’s, disability income, employment, or housing. This position works with people in our Community Center as well as those we’ve housed to help prevent their return to homelessness. The work is challenging but highly meaningful. Come join our team! To apply, read the full job description found here. Very good vacation and sick leave benefits, and health reimbursement program up to $6000. For questions, write Sam@OurCommunityPlace.org.
