About CWS

Founded in 1946, Church World Service (CWS) is a non-profit and faith-based global humanitarian organization that provides sustainable self-help, development, disaster relief, and refugee and immigrant assistance around the world and in the United States (U.S.). CWS has assisted over 865,000 refugees and immigrants from across all faiths and backgrounds to start new lives in the U.S. and to integrate into their communities. Join us in this life changing work.

Through funding from the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), CWS provides services to unaccompanied children (UC) through the Home Study (HS) and Post Release Service (PRS) program. UC are recently arrived in the US and released from federal custody to a sponsor, typically a family member or friend, and may require additional support once in the community to access resources and ensure stability of the placement and their safety. CWS also provides home study services to those children in ORR care when assessment of the proposed placement is warranted to ensure the sponsor can provide a safe and stable home and ensure the UC's well-being. CWS provides HSPRS nationally through CWS local offices and affiliate partners.

Purpose

The Home Study and Post Release Services Caseworker (HS and PRS Caseworker) Level 3 provides focused, collaborative home study services in the Walnut Creek, CA area to unaccompanied children and their sponsors to ensure and support the safe and timely release from federal care. In addition, the HSPRS Caseworker applies their clinical expertise in the provision of therapeutic, strengths-based and culturally and linguistically appropriate case management services to children identified as requiring a high level of care upon reunification and in the community where their sponsor resides. Weekly intensive in-home services are required in addition to paying close attention to the child's affect, ability to be a reliable reporter, self-reflect about their immediate environment. This clinical assessment approach is part of ongoing efforts to build a viable support system, reliable communication conduits and constructive collaboration with the child, sponsor, and other household members. Caseworkers will conduct outreach and education to community service providers to supplement existing services that do not adequately address unique needs of immigrant children. The Level 3 Caseworker will regularly interact with Child Protection Services, Trafficking Victims Assistance Program and behavioral healthcare providers.
