Rapid Rehousing Case Manager, Outreach and Engagement - 10935

This position will be posted for a minimum of 5 days   The mission of the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless is to work collaboratively toward the prevention of homelessness and the creation of lasting solutions for homeless and at-risk families, children, and individuals throughout Colorado. The Coalition advocates for and provides a continuum of housing and a variety of services to improve the health, well-being, and stability of those it serves.   Our Philosophy of Service: We believe all people have the right to adequate housing and health care. We work to remove the barriers that restrict access to these rights. Society benefits when adequate housing and health care are available to everyone. We create lasting solutions to homelessness by:  ·         Honoring the inherent dignity of those we serve, affirming their capabilities and fostering their hope that a better life is possible.  ·         Building strong, caring and trauma-informed communities through the integration of housing, health care and supportive services.  ·         Advocating for social and racial equity, inclusion and diversity, and challenging the status quo in partnership with our workforce members and those we serve.  ·         Achieving excellence through continuous quality assurance, innovation and professional development.  ·         Using resources judiciously and effectively.       As a Case Manager, you will provide coordinated stabilization and time-limited case management support to clients in housing following their exit from unsheltered homelessness or transitional shelter sites. You will work as part of a close-knit team within a larger collaborative that includes fellow case managers, behavioral health navigators, street medicine nurses and providers, housing navigators, and other service providers from CCH and partner agencies. Together, this team is dedicated to ensuring rapid exits from homelessness into housing and intentional follow-up care for at least the first year of housing. Services provided will include, but are not limited to: relationship-building and trauma-informed engagement; crisis intervention; provision of basic needs (e.g., food, clothing, household items); facilitation of medical and behavioral health care; transportation assistance; and client advocacy and linkage to services and supports necessary for stabilization in housing following a time-limited housing subsidy.   This position collaborates closely with non-congregate shelter providers, housing programs, and other City or contracted entities as needed to support program retention, remove barriers to stabilization, and pursue a variety of housing options beyond the initial intervention period.   NOTE: In order to ensure that our consumers receive the best possible care the candidate chosen to fill this position will be required to complete our internal credentialing and privileging process prior to a start date.  The credentialing and privileging timeline is dependent on the selected candidate's submission of documents necessary for clearance.  Please note that a start date will be scheduled once credentialing and privileging is complete.
