Washington, United States Joseph House Full time
Joseph’s House is a residential respite care home in NW Washington, DC that serves primarily previously homeless men and women with advanced HIV disease.  For most of these residents, some combination of mental illness, stigma, isolation, substance abuse, poverty and/or domestic violence have prevented them from successfully managing their HIV disease.
 
Once medically stabilized, many Joseph’s House residents transition to post residential case management.  These services can include medication management, housing, counseling, life skills training, advocacy, transportation and community activities.
 
Commitment to Justice, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Our organization is dedicated to eliminating racial inequities, and we seek to create a diverse workforce that shares in this commitment to justice. Joseph’s House will not discriminate against applicants or employees on the basis of race, creed, sexual orientation, gender identity, color, age, national origin, religious beliefs, physical handicap, marital status, ancestry, past incarceration unrelated to job responsibilities, or liability for service in the armed forces of the United States. 
 
Contemplative Care
Joseph’s House was founded upon the values of justice for the poor and friendship with the outcast. Our mindfulness and awareness practices help us turn toward suffering, rather than hurry past it. Applicants must have a desire and readiness to deepen their spiritual and personal growth through their service and interactions with all members of the Joseph’s House community.

●       Administer medications, assess vital signs, monitor input/output, and complete all necessary documentation for services provided
