Description

Position Overview:
Lead Case Managers (LCMs) perform all duties of Case Managers. They provide case management and supportive services to individuals and families who are experiencing street-level homelessness. Through street outreach, LCMs seek to connect unsheltered homeless neighbors to sustainable housing. LCMs meet clients where they are and support them to achieve their goals. City Net's services are housing-focused; LCMs work with clients on developing long-term housing plans. LCMs connect homeless neighbors to appropriate supportive services, including medical health treatment, mental health treatment, counseling, and permanent housing.


Lead Case Managers offer care and service coordination in partnership with other nonprofits, County and City entities, law enforcement, behavioral health services, and medical providers to ensure clients receive the help they need.

These services are provided in collaboration with our partners with the intention of assisting clients with obtaining and maintaining permanent housing as quickly as possible.


Additionally, Lead Case Managers are responsible for assisting supervisors in monitoring staff performance, schedules, and expenses, and providing guidance, peer-mentorship, and training to Case Managers to help them meet the requirements established for their positions.
