The Opiate Treatment Outpatient Program (OTOP), the OTOP Women's Center, and the OTOP Mobile Methadone Van Program provide Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) and counseling to opiate use disorder in conjunction with medical and psychiatric services. The target population for OTOP is low-income medically/psychiatrically compromised opiate dependent individuals who reside in San Francisco, primarily in the South of Market, Mission, Castro, and Tenderloin areas. This includes a large proportion of African Americans and Latinos, gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals, and women of childbearing age, pregnant women, and post-partum women. OTOP clients are low-income and uninsured or underinsured. This population has multiple layers of problems, including poly-drug abuse problems, psychiatric difficulties, life-threatening health problems, and significant cultural barriers to receiving proper care. This population is at especially high risk for HIV. Under the direct supervision of the Clinical Supervisor, the incumbent provides a range of social work counseling services to clients at OTOP clients with multiple layers of instability and vulnerability including housing, financial, legal, medical care coordination, transportation, food and clothing. Services are provided to all OTOP clients with priority given to HIV+ clients and clients with severe and persistent mental health issues. While OTOP is able to provide medical treatment for opiate use disorder and substance abuse counseling, this social work position is essential for successful treatment of clients, retention in treatment, and engagement in community resources. All sites serve culturally diverse low-income opiate users with co-occurring psychiatric disorders. The incumbent provides culturally appropriate social work services, including mental health screening, brief interventions, and treatment planning. Comprehensive training and clinical supervision hours are provided to support growth in clinical skills. The final salary and offer components are subject to additional approvals based on UC policy.
