  • financial management, 
  • medical management,

  • community connections, 
  • household maintenance, and 
  • creating and maintaining relationships through social skill development.

Requirements

The ideal candidate for the Community Living Specialist role is someone who is highly organized, adaptable, and has the ability to quickly establish healthy connections with the individuals receiving our services. 


Additionally, the Community Living Specialist must:

  • Frequent, daily travel is required.* You must be available/able to drive to various locations in the Portland Metro Area and be willing to transport Supported Individuals in your own vehicle. (Mileage reimbursement rate is $.725/mile)
  • Must possess current liability insurance and have a valid Driver's License.

If driving is something you do not want to do, you may want to reconsider applying to this job.
