    Organization Overview:

    The Fortune Society, Inc. (Fortune) has been working for over 54 years in service to our mission: to support successful reentry from incarceration and promote alternatives to incarceration, thus strengthening the fabric of our communities. The organization has evolved into one of the nation's preeminent reentry and justice-informed service organizations, providing formerly incarcerated people with the skills and wrap-around services needed to break the cycle of crime and incarceration and to build productive lives in their communities.

    Fortune has grown steadily over the years and, as we approach $60 million in annual revenue with nearly 600 staff, we anticipate that growth to continue - both in size and in depth of service. Our organization has a dual mission: advocacy and service. Our advocacy focuses on building a more just criminal legal system and reducing the barriers for reentry into society. On the service side Fortune encompasses a broad range of programs. We started with employment and education and now offer a robust array of services including: alternatives to incarceration, supervised release, court advocacy, discharge planning within correctional facilities, licensed substance use and mental health treatment, a housing continuum ranging from emergency and transitional through permanent congregate and scattered site housing, assistance in obtaining benefits, a care management unit, HIV services, a food and nutrition program, a women's initiative, and an arts program. Each service we provide is informed by the needs of the population we serve. Fortune currently serves approximately 11,000 people a year. Our client population mirrors the incarcerated population - approximately 85% are male and over 90% are people of color. Our program models are recognized, both nationally and internationally, for their quality and innovation.

    Position Summary

    Under the direction of Fortune, the Behavioral Health Manager is responsible for collaborating across interdisciplinary teams to advise, develop, and guide staff practice to influence positive behavior change in Atlas Workforce participants.

The Behavioral Health Manager will adhere to the model prescribed by United Way of New York City, philosophies and approaches, manuals, and policies, exude a collegial nature that is rooted in authentic engagement, and relish in the opportunity to collaborate with members across teams proactively. This position requires a keen understanding of the environmental triggers that commonly impact men of color from communities with prevalent gang violence, criminal justice involvement, and substance abuse. The Behavioral Health Manager must have experience working with frontline service workers who engage high-risk youth and adults in structured programming.
