What will the job look like?
The Licensed Mental Health Professional is responsible for providing trauma-informed mental health supports to Peoria youth age 10-24 and their families. This individual works closely with the rest of Goodwill's Youth Services team, as well as many partner agencies, to coordinate and deliver a range of services, including screening, assessment, psychoeducation, therapeutic supports, and service and resource navigation to youth in need. As this is a new program, candidates will have the opportunity to work with Goodwill leadership on program development and design. There will also be opportunities to educate families and community members on trauma and mental health.
This is a week day position with no on-call or crisis response, though occasional evenings may be required. Some job duties will take place at our Goodwill Commons facility, while many other activities will occur at our school and agency partner sites.
