LEAD Case Manager

2 weeks ago

Minneapolis, United States Pillsbury United Communities Full time
ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW
We are community builders co-creating enduring change toward a just society where every person has personal, social, and economic power. Our united system of programs, neighborhood centers, social enterprises, and partnerships connects individuals and their families across the region.

The Movement for Black Lives has created an opening to radically rethink how our communities pursue public health, order, safety, and equity. LEAD Minneapolis, a harm reduction diversion initiative, is an approach to creating and sustaining safe communities. The LEAD program supports people who otherwise would be subject to arrest for low-level, nonviolent law violations that stem from unmet behavioral health needs. LEAD fosters partnerships between community members, law enforcement, health and service agencies, business owners, and civil rights advocates to address the over-reliance on arrest and the legal system by diverting individuals into long-term, community-based case management.

POSITION OVERVIEW

The primary objective of this position is to provide engagement and intensive case management services to individuals suspected of law violations due to underlying substance use, mental health needs, homelessness and/or extreme poverty. This person reports to the LEAD Case Management Supervisor and is responsible for providing direct services to a caseload of approximately 25 individuals. The LEAD Case Manager will ensure provision of outreach, long-term engagement, and supportive services for participants through intensive case management activities through collaboration with LEAD partners, service providers, housing providers, and other community organizations. The ideal candidate will be an expert relationship builder, skilled in harm reduction and trauma-informed care principles, enjoy working on a team, and possess the ability to navigate complex systems of care, resources, and government systems to effectively support program participants.
