About The Position

Make a Difference as a Licensed Co-Responder Team Leader with ReDiscover.

As a non-profit community mental health center serving southeastern Jackson County, Missouri, we’re passionate about helping individuals impacted by mental illness or substance use find hope, support, and healing. Our Mobile Crisis Response Services provide real-time, on-the-ground support to individuals experiencing a mental health crisis. In partnership with local law enforcement and CommCARE, our team responds to calls from the national and local crisis lines or law enforcement contacts.

This fast-paced, community-based program is built on collaboration, compassion, and timely care.
