2 months ago
TITLE: R&P Case Management Intern (UNPAID) Fall/Spring
LOCATION: Wichita, KS
START
DATE: Fall 2024
DURATION: 2 semesters (Fall 2024- Spring 2025)
SALARY: UNPAID
PURPOSE:
Intern
positions are requested to strengthen our capacity to serve clients, to support
direct services, assist with management of program documentation and general
administrative support.
SCOPE
OF WORK:
The Reception and
Placement (R&P) Program is a 90-day period of intensive case management
services, where clients are assisted and referred to resources and providers, such
as social security, food stamps, medical screening, school enrollment,
childcare, ESL, etc. Refugees are supported by R&P funds that go toward necessary
expenses like rent, utilities, and other personal-need costs. These monetary
funds are designed to promote rapid self-sufficiency upon initial resettlement,
to cover living expenses prior to employment. While the needs and goals can
vary depending on the individual or familyâs case, all new refugees need to
learn and access certain systems and resources to enhance their ability to
become independent. For example, they need to learn public transportation, U.S.
health systems, emergency protocols and accessing benefits. The more education
and information they receive and digest, the more successfully they will adjust
and achieve.
Other goals of the R&P
program include increasing food security and empowering clients with the tools
to gain confidence in their own abilities. We use a client-centered and
strengths-based approach to assist clients with meeting their goals.
The R&P Intern will
work closely with the R&P Caseworker and other direct service staff to
support case management
and provide referrals to community resources to address the needs of our
clients.
