Key Responsibilities

The Community Engagement Specialist plays a crucial role in AHF's mission by reconnecting patients who have previously disengaged from care. In this position, you will collaborate with various AHF staff members, including Linkage Specialists and Community Health Workers, as well as local agencies, to implement targeted interventions aimed at reaching out to patients who have fallen out of care and guiding them back to essential services.

Your expertise in local demographics and the unique challenges faced by this population will be vital in developing innovative strategies to locate and re-engage these individuals. Some patients may already be part of the Ryan White program, while others may not yet be enrolled but are still eligible for outreach services.

By leveraging your knowledge of the Ryan White Care Act Program, you will facilitate enrollment for patients who are successfully re-engaged. Your duties will include reviewing patient histories, devising action plans, making phone calls, conducting home visits, and visiting community sites to locate patients.

With your creative problem-solving skills, you will strive to re-engage patients and connect them with healthcare services, ultimately aiming for viral suppression and sustained care. Your interactions with patients will directly contribute to AHF's success in fulfilling the objectives of our Ryan White contract, as well as supporting broader measures established by the HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) and the Department of Health and Human Services.
