    Default job background
    Description

    Overview

    Do you want to help support our foster youth? Join our team at Seneca Family of Agencies as our Intensive Services Foster (ISFC) Clinician and help support our youth navigate foster family placements to promote stability, secruity, and permanency.

    The ISFC Clinician is responsible for both the clinical treatment and case management of up to eight children placed in Seneca foster family agency programs. Seneca's ISFC program serves children aged 6-18 who have emotional and behavioral challenges due to histories of trauma, neglect and abuse. In this home-based, therapeutic approach, Seneca foster parents are valued team members who receive weekly support and guidance from Seneca clinicians and counselors. With a focus on the strengths and value of each child, the team helps foster youth to recover and flourish as they learn coping skills and improve their ability to regulate feelings and behaviors.

    ABOUT INTENSIVE SERVICES FOSTER CARE (ISFC)

    ISFC is Seneca Center's primary foster care program. ISFC provides therapeutic home settings with Resource Parents as an alternative to residential placement with the goal of supporting ultimate transition to permanency through behavioural supports, therapy, crisis interventions, and rehabilitation services. Youth referred are typically not able to maintain placement in a standard foster home or are stepping down from residential placement. Families work with a social worker and support counselor, in addition to outside therapists, teachers, counselors, county social workers, and other involved in the child's care to develop and implement a thoughtful plan to address client and family needs.

    ABOUT SENECA

    Seneca Family of Agencies is a non-profit with a simple but powerful mission: to help children and families through the most difficult times of their lives. Since then, Seneca provides a broad continuum of permanency, mental health, education, and juvenile justice services, which today reach over 18,000 youth and families throughout California and Washington State each year.
