Clients are referred to our program when they become at risk of eviction and a return to homelessness due behavior resulting from a mental health diagnosis. We triage this eviction risk though building relationship with clients, collaborating with onsite providers, linking clients to community providers and medical care, referrals to legal supports, and education and support to the system of care working with our clients. The goal of our program is to support individuals in staying housed. The CSW III will carry a caseload of individuals who have complex co-occurring physical health, mental health and substance misuse disorders to support them in accessing housing and maintaining housing and link to appropriate outpatient services.

Working with diverse and multicultural team and community, the incumbent will participate and contribute to culturally focused clinical interventions and will practice a commitment to cultural humility and anti-racism.

The CSW III will record services in the client's electronic medical record and will coordinate closely with hospitals and clinic medical providers as well as other duties as assigned.
The CSW III for the ISN contract has advanced clinical knowledge and skills and is distinguished from the CSW II by leadership activities that support the Program Director and Clinical Supervisors including; taking the lead in weekly coordination meetings and providing consultation, support and resources to community partners, screening new referrals and consulting with referents about referrals made, creating and leading support/resource groups in the community setting and other tasks as needed.
