This community based, family centered program works closely with parents, children, and providers (including ACS) in order to ensure a strong, effective collaboration that supports families in focusing on child safety and well-being.

The case planner will also be responsible for ensuring coordination between families, providers, and the legal system, will participate in weekly individual supervision, and will document treatment efforts consistent with ACS and UBA/Montefiore guidelines. Evening and/or weekend availability may be required.

Requirements

The preferred candidate will have demonstrated experience with child welfare, mental health issues, and/or substance use concerns, as well as experience working with families and the legal system. The preferred candidate will also possess excellent organizational and communication skills. Spanish-speaking strongly preferred.
