Chicago, Illinois, United States Brightpoint Full time $86,400 - $90,000 per year

Brightpoint invites you to join our team of mission-driven staff who share a common vision: an equitable world where all children and families thrive in strong communities. As a leader in the human services sector for 140 years, we aim to advance the well-being of children by investing in families and strengthening communities through data-informed, collaborative, and preventative solutions.

The Foster Care Case Aide is a critical member of the region's child welfare team, working collaboratively within and across programs to ensure a relentless focus on keeping children safe and supporting families, consistent with our agency's Blueprint for Impact, which includes replacing what we currently think of as child welfare services with what we know to be child, family, and community well-being solutions. The Case Aide provides supportive services to the specialists in order to accomplish established goals for program participants and provide supervision to families involved in the child welfare system who are working towards reunification. The Case Aide will provide transportation for program participants to various appointments such as counseling, medical and home visits, provide supervision and assess the interactions between children and other parties involved in visits, model/teach appropriate parenting skills and the use of non-physical discipline with family members, and complete comprehensive case notes documenting any interactions with children and program participants.
