  • Our Vision - Community Counseling Centers of Chicago (C4) will be, and will be recognized as, essential to the wellbeing of the communities we serve.

Job Description:

The purpose of this position is to stabilize consumers in psychiatric crisis. Consumers include children, adolescents, adults, and their families. The crisis worker will provide crisis intervention services, including information gathering, assessment, brief skill-based interventions, and safety planning, with the goal of immediate symptom reduction, stabilization, and restoration to a person-centered baseline level of functioning. The crisis worker will assist consumers in identifying and engaging in recovery- and resiliency-oriented goal development and achievement in a culturally aware and appropriate manner.

The crisis worker must be willing to work certain weekends, some night or overnight shifts, and occasional holidays.

The preferred schedule(s) for this position would be Tuesday-Friday 9:30 a.m.- 8:00 p.m. or Monday-Thursday 12:30 p.m. – 11:00 p.m.
