You will bring experience working with children and families and you will have a bachelor's degree in social work or a human services related field, a current driver's license, car registration and auto insurance. You will also be reliable, and have a responsible attitude, a compassionate approach and a commitment to quality in everything you do.

  • Adhere to the Foster Care Supportive Visitation program model of service (strength-based, non-deficit approach).
  • Provide and assist families in obtaining concrete services, such as housing, transportation, home cleaning, maintenance and repair, etc.
  • Provide skills training including but not limited to parenting, self-advocacy, self-sufficiency and communication.
  • Provide short-term counseling and crisis intervention for families.
  • Make collateral contacts to arrange outpatient counseling or medical care; address educational needs; assist with utility needs; resolve housing issues with landlords, shelters or potential housing programs; and connect families to work with community resources.
  • Prepare documentation (service plans, progress reports, termination summaries, goal sheets, weekly plans, time reports, letters, etc.) within the appropriate time frames.
  • Prepare and present each case for termination conference with contractor, recommending follow-up services.
  • Maintain face-to-face contact with families according to the contract-defined frequency and the individual needs of each family.
  • Maintain weekly contact, or more as needed, with referring workers.
  • Complete follow-up evaluations of families at 3, 6 and 12 month intervals in the specified time frame.
  • Transport clients in your own vehicle, as needed.
