2 months ago

Philadelphia, United States City of Philadelphia Full time
Job Description

The City of Philadelphia is seeking a full-time Gun Violence Intervention (GVI) Case Manager to provide day to day social services coordination and management support to the GVI Program. The National Network for Safe Communities’ GVI has repeatedly demonstrated that violence can be dramatically reduced when a partnership of community members, law enforcement, and social service providers directly engages with the small and active number of people involved in street groups. The program clearly communicates a moral message from community representatives that violence will not be tolerated; a law enforcement message that any future violence will be met with clear, predictable, and certain consequences; and an offer of help from social service providers for those who want it.

This position will work with partner agencies, social service providers, and community groups to create a unique support structure tailored to each group member who is a focus of GVI. Additionally, the Case Manager once assigned an individual will serve as the main point of contact for that individual who is interested in getting support. It is important to note that the ability to be accessible during both traditional and non-traditional work hours (nights and weekends) is an extremely important component to this position. Other responsibilities include but are not limited to, meeting with group members to do intake, walking them through all the resources available, attending referral meetings, following up with the group member and referral agencies to ensure the group member is having success, holding partners accountable, and providing mentorship and support to the group members.
