About the position
View Point Health is a community behavioral health center utilizing a team of psychiatrists, nurses, licensed counselors and social workers, and other professionals to provide services to individuals who need treatment and support to cope with mental illness, substance abuse, and intellectual and developmental disabilities. View Point Health serves uninsured, underinsured, low-income Medicaid, Medicare, war veterans and some private insurance across multiple locations with a full continuum of behavioral health services and support. The services provided by View Point Health contribute to the reduction in homelessness, reduction in crime and subsequent incarcerations, higher graduation rates, lower dropout rates, decreased ER visits and decreased inpatient admissions. This program is provided to adults enrolled in GHVP to promote housing stability, wellness, independence, recovery, and community integration. Housing stability is measured by ongoing housing and by decreased number of hospitalizations/ER visits/incarcerations, by decreased frequency and duration of crisis episodes, and by increased and/or stable participation in maintenance of personal housing stability and wellness. Support based on the individuals' needs is used to promote resiliency while understanding the effects of SPMI and lived trauma. The Housing Support staff will serve as the first point of contact for landlords/property owners for any issues arising with a supportive housing individual and will provide linkage to community; general entitlements; and psychiatric, substance use disorder, medical services, crisis prevention, and intervention services.
