ACT Case Manager
About The Position
As a Case Manager on our Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) team, you’ll work directly with adult clients to help them identify and build the lives they want. You’ll collaborate with a dedicated team that focuses on areas like housing, employment, therapy, medical care, and substance use support. Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) was created in the 1970s and is one of the oldest and most widely researched evidence-based practices working with severe mental illness adult clients, ages 25 and older. By providing person centered assistance including housing, recovery, vocational support, nurse/psychiatrist and therapist services, we enable clients to eventually transition to lower levels of care programs or move toward independence, increasing their quality of life. Clients may include adults with a history of trauma, homelessness, frequent hospital stays, refugees, and clients who have not responded well to traditional outpatient care.
