    Responsibilities



    Position Summary

    Provide specialized support to youth enrolled the Intensive In-Home Behavioral Health Treatment (IIBHT) program. This will include meeting with youth to build personal relationships, support healthy social involvement with others, assist with planning and problem-solving, and to model a healthy lifestyle. The Peer Support Partner will utilize the direct experience they have with receiving behavioral health services along with appropriate and intentional use of self-disclosure to support the youth and reduce the impact of a behavioral health disorder on the youth's life.


    Essential Duties and Responsibilities

    • Work as part of a collaborative team that includes family support partner and clinical staff to support families who are enrolled in the IIBHT program.
    • Meet with family within one week of intake into the program to introduce peer support role and identify ways this role can provide support for the youth's needs through treatment.
    • Provide phone and email support along with in-person meetings for youth. In person meetings should occur once weekly while in the program and additional support provided as needed throughout the week.
    • Schedule sessions and meet with youth at a location convenient for the youth and family member(s) in the community.
    • Structure sessions based on youth's needs and identified goals. Sessions should include leveraging strengths, normalizing help-seeking behavior, de-stigmatizing mental health challenges, increasing the youth's capacity for self-advocacy and self-efficacy, and increasing supports across all life domains.
    • Maintain a flexible schedule that is convenient for youth and families, which often results in working non- traditional hours. Be available to teammates and youth at all times during scheduled work hours.
    • Coordinate with the assigned clinical specialist on needs, barriers, and progress. Maintain high communication with the clinical team when there are clinical needs and to assist in providing unified support to the family.
    • Consult with the specialist when any clinical needs or high risk safety needs are identified. The peer support partner will not provide any form of therapy when meeting with youth for sessions.
    • Discharge youth from Peer Support once program outcomes have been achieved.
    • Complete documentation as required within the Youth Villages Electronic Health Record.
    • Attend weekly team meetings and ongoing training as assigned.
