Essential Duties and Responsibilities

Peer Support and Resident Engagement: Serve as a positive role model for residents, using lived experience, recovery principles, and person-centered practices to build trusting relationships. Encourage resident engagement in supportive services, behavioral health treatment, life skills development, and community resources. Distribute recovery resources and support residents in working toward long-term recovery, self-sufficiency, and stable permanent housing.

Daily Residential Oversight and Wellness Checks: Provide daily oversight of the housing program, including conducting wellness checks, monitoring the residence's safety and condition, reinforcing program expectations, and promoting community living. Maintain an on-site presence consistent with the live-on-site requirement, report safety or maintenance concerns to the appropriate staff, and assist with daily residential operations.

Crisis Support and De-Escalation: Support crisis de-escalation in accordance with program procedures and training, including responding to after-hours situations as an on-site presence. Recognize signs of distress or crisis, respond calmly and appropriately, and immediately escalate emergencies, safety concerns, or behavioral incidents to the Lead Certified Peer Support Specialist/Case Manager, Program Director, or emergency services as appropriate.

Resident Orientation and House Meetings: Assist with resident orientation to the residence and program expectations. Facilitate house meetings and resident activities that promote a safe, supportive, and recovery-oriented community environment.
