Fremont, United States Veterans Health Administration Full time

The Senior Social Worker is the Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Specialist for HUD-VASH. This position provides SUD case management and intervention support to the Housing and Urban Development-Veterans Affairs Supported Housing (HUD-VASH) Program in a team-oriented, recovery-based program. The (SUD) Specialist supports the HUD-VASH Program by providing continuity of care between Homeless Programs through services to Veterans with SUDs as they transition from programs such as Domiciliary or Residential Rehabilitation and Treatment Programs (RRTPs), Health Care for Homeless Veterans Contracted Housing, and Grant Per Diem Programs to permanent housing through HUD-VASH. The Senior Social Worker provides ongoing substance use case management and early treatment interventions to promote sustained stability and abstinence in HUD-VASH subsidized permanent housing. Substance use can be a contributing factor to homelessness, so providing SUD treatment support and early intervention can promote recovery, improved quality of life, and successful permanent housing. Homeless Veterans are frequently also diagnosed with co occurring mental health, physical health and social problems that require particular skill in early intervention and crisis management. The Senior Social Worker must be able to develop appropriate professional relationships with the Veterans and meet the Veteran where he or she is ready to engage in treatment.

Major duties include but are not limited to:
Provides direct SUD services for HUD-VASH in the Medical Center.
Provides Outreach services for HUD-VASH in the community.
Provides training and clinical supervision for other members of the multidisciplinary treatment team in areas related to SUD assessment, anger management, and life skills and SUD with co-occurring disorders.
Independently conducts intake and needs assessment of homeless Veterans and their significant others. Identifies symptoms leading to clinical diagnoses of SUD.
Provides all necessary assessment functions, e.g. interviewing, psychosocial histories, and SUD assessments to aid in the development of treatment plans.
Develop comprehensive treatment plans with the Veteran that address the factors that contributed to homelessness, including SUD and other co-occurring factors within a recovery model framework.
Works with the Veteran to realize the Veteran's treatment goals, and reassesses and revises goals as indicated by the Veteran's engagement in treatment.
Organizes and conducts individual and group case management and SUD treatment, including early interventions and supportive follow-up to ensure stability in-home visits and facility-based contacts.
Provides SUD support to the HUD-VASH team as a functional member of this team, including consultation, interventions, or accompanying other case managers on home visits, when indicated by suspicion of HUD-VASH participant SUD use.
Will serve as a member of a multidisciplinary homeless program treatment team.
Will develop partnerships with community agencies, especially those serving homeless and SUD Veterans, with regular contact and communication.
