Case Worker - Manhattan, United States - Mitchell Martin Inc
Description
Our Client, a private child welfare nonprofit, is seeking an Case Worker / Education and Employment SpecialistLocation: Manhattan, NY
Position Type: IT Full Time
Job Summary:
Education and Employment Specialists (EES) are members of our FAP teams consisting of the Program Director, Supervisor and Therapists/Case Planners. The primary role of the EES is to provide comprehensive educational and vocational supports, advocacy, and technical assistance to school-age children as well as other members of the family needing supports around employment and/or their vocational interests. In addition, the EES is responsible to support the work of the Therapists/Case Planners in performing case management tasks to assist families with concrete needs and services, entitlements, pro-social activities, and referrals to support services to alleviate barriers to their participation in treatment. Each FAP Program is staffed with an EES responsible for providing educational and vocational services to all families receiving services in that program. For FAP Programs serving multi-boroughs, the EES serves clients in all contracted boroughs.
The EES will obtain medical and educational records for all school age children and attend all school related meetings/hearings, to assist caregivers with advocating for their child's educational and social emotional needs in a school setting. Accordingly, the EES will ensure recommended educational support services are provided.
The EES will also be trained by the Columbia University Workplace Center in the Young Adult Work Opportunities for Rewarding Careers (YA WORC) curriculum. YA WORC is an evidenced informed model that focuses on helping young people to develop the relational competencies essential to being successful in the world of work and on providing young people with the support, skills and knowledge needed for career planning. The EES will be responsible for implementing the YA WORC curriculum in their work with young persons, including Career/Education Planning and Career Club.
The EES will also perform case management tasks such as conducting home and financial assessments as well as safe sleep assessments of infants and safety and risk assessments of all children in the home. Based on these assessments, the EES will provide families with direct case management and advocacy services to address their need for support in areas such as public assistance, housing, emergency food, clothing, furniture and referrals for community-based services such as parenting classes, mental health services, after school activities, SYEP, summer camps, and other pro-social activities, etc. The EES will report to the Director of the program.
