About The Position

This is community-based service coordination. You connect members to care, help them stay in the community, and address the barriers — including criminogenic ones — standing between them and stability. You're not a clinician and not a corrections officer — you're the person who understands both worlds and works the space between them.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in human services, social work, criminal justice, or related field — OR lived experience in recovery or past justice involvement.
Knowledge of the justice system, re-entry/probation/parole processes, and behavioral health systems.
Trauma-informed, culturally humble, comfortable with electronic documentation.
Valid driver's license, reliable vehicle, auto insurance, personal smartphone.
Must meet EOHHS-approved training requirements, including annual training on justice-involved populations.

Nice To Haves

Multilingual and multicultural candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.

Responsibilities

Engage members through outreach and follow-up to maintain community tenure.
Develop and update a CSP-JI Service Plan addressing criminogenic needs, recovery goals, and behavioral health — coordinated with probation/parole so plans don't conflict.
Connect members to behavioral health providers, MAT, and community supports; coordinate with parole/probation officers, correctional institutions, and BH-JI providers as needed.
Address barriers — housing, employment, transportation, benefits, childcare.
Maintain at least 4 contacts per member every 30 days (1+ in-person).
Support discharge planning from day one, including a safety plan and written aftercare plan.
Document all contacts and progress; report Reportable Adverse Incidents within 1 business day.
Protect confidentiality, follow safety protocols, and participate in supervision and ongoing training.
