  • Conduct comprehensive assessments and develop individualized reentry plans addressing treatment, housing, employment, and other key needs.
  • Provide case management services including coordination of care, advocacy, and connection to behavioral health and social service providers.
  • Assist clients in accessing benefits, securing identification, and preparing for community reentry.
  • Coordinate with probation/parole officers, community treatment teams, housing providers, and peer support specialists.
  • Monitor client progress post-release, adjusting service plans and supports as needed to reduce recidivism and promote recovery.
  • Maintain timely, accurate, and confidential documentation in accordance with agency and regulatory standards.
  • Participate in Stepping Up-related meetings, cross-system collaboration efforts, and stakeholder communication.
  • Promote a trauma-informed, recovery-oriented, and person-centered approach in all interactions.
  • Respond to and manage behavioral health crisis calls as assigned, providing immediate support, triage, and linkage to emergency or crisis services when appropriate.
  • All other duties as assigned
