The FEP Team offers young people an array of services, including low-dose medication management, Cognitive Behavioral Treatment for Mental Health and Psychosis, Family Education, Case Management, Supported Education and Employment, and peer support services.  Service coordination is guided by the young person’s voice and choice.

This position is responsible for developing, coordinating, and implementing services for consumers as identified in the service plan. Responsibilities include providing case management, service planning, and coordination of services with other agency providers to meet the client’s needs along with supportive counseling.  The FEP Case Manager will also provide advocacy to consumers in order to help consumers set and achieve recovery goals and empower consumers to increase self-advocacy.
