    Open to the Public:
    This title is part of the New York Hiring for Emergency Limited Placement Statewide Program (NY HELPS).

    To be considered for appointment through NY HELPS, candidates must meet the open-competitive minimum qualifications for this position


    The qualifications are:


    A current Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification (CRCC) certificate; OR a master's degree in rehabilitation counseling, including a supervised internship, from a CORE (Council on Rehabilitation Education) accredited program; OR a master's degree in rehabilitation counseling or counseling and notice of eligibility to sit for the Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification (CRCC) certificate examination OR a master's degree or higher in Rehabilitation Counseling; OR a master's degree or higher in a related degree field AND two year of professional work experience in a related field.

    This position may be designated 55 b/c and is subject to verification of applicant eligibility.

    Duties Description Coordinate the development of individual service plans and the delivery of services to consumers with physical and/or cognitive disabilities with the primary goal to assist the consumer in attaining/retaining optimum employment or daily living and/or social skills.


    Coordinate the resources of family, community, service providers, educational institutions, and employers to further the attainment of the NYS Commission for the Blind consumer's program goals.


    Additional duties to be discussed in detail during the interview.

    Additional Comments *For the duration of the NY HELPS Program, this title maybe filled via a non- competitive appointment, which means no examination is required but all candidates must meet the minimum qualifications of the title for which they apply.

    At this time, agencies may recruit and hire employees by making temporary appointments.

    In May 2024, if a temporary NY HELPS employee is satisfactorily performing in the position, the appointment will be changed from temporary pending Civil Service Commission Action to permanent non-competitive and the official probationary period will begin.


    At a future date (within one year of permanent appointment), it is expected employees hired under NY HELPS will have their non-competitive employment status converted to competitive status, without having to compete in an examination.

    Employees will then be afforded with all of the same rights and privileges of competitive class employees of New York State.

    While serving permanently in a NY HELPS title, employees may take part in any promotion examination for which they are qualified.

    Background Investigation Requirements:


    1) All prospective employees will be investigated through a Criminal Background Check (CBC), which includes State and federal Criminal History Record Checks.

    All convictions must be reported; conviction of a felony or misdemeanor, or any falsified or omitted information on the prospective appointee's employment application, may bar appointment or result in removal after appointment.

    Each case will be determined on its own merits, consistent with the applicable provisions of State and federal laws, rules, and regulations.

    Prospective employees will be fingerprinted in order to obtain a record of their criminal history information, and may be required to pay any necessary fees.

    2) All prospective employees will be screened against the Statewide Central Register of Child Abuse and Maltreatment (SCR). Prospective employees will be required to pay any necessary fees.


    3) For Division of Juvenile Justice and Opportunities for Youth (DJJOY) prospective appointees will be checked against the Staff Exclusion List (SEL) maintained by the Justice Center for the Protection of People with Special Needs.

    Prospective employees whose names appear on the SEL as having been found responsible for serious or repeated acts of abuse or neglect will be barred from appointment and may have their names removed from the eligible list(s) for the title(s) if applicable.
