About The Position

Founded in 1946, Cal Voices is one of the oldest peer-run grassroots behavioral health advocacy agencies in California, and is an affiliate of Mental Health America. Cal Voices is a 501(c)(3) public benefit organization dedicated to improving the lives of residents in the diverse communities of California through advocacy, education, research, and culturally-relevant peer support services. In all its programs, Cal Voices works with individuals and families experiencing behavioral health challenges to promote wellness and recovery, prevention, and improved access to services and supports. With statewide, regional, and local programs in Amador, Placer, and Sacramento Counties, Cal Voices regularly employs around 55 positions, over 90% of which are designated peer roles that require personal lived experience as a consumer of behavioral health services or as a family member, parent/caregiver, or primary support person of someone with complex behavioral health needs. The Human Resources (HR) Manager is Cal Voices’ go-to person for all employment-related issues, ensuring managers and employees have the necessary information, resources, and support to be effective in their roles.

Cal Voices is a consumer-run organization. As such, the HR Manager must have personal lived experience of recovery from a mental health condition and/or substance use disorder. The HR Manager should be familiar with self-help and recovery concepts, core competencies and best practices for the effective delivery of peer support services, mental health risk factors and protective factors at work, and psychological safety in the workplace.
