NEW Community Clinic LTDGreen Bay, WI
1d

About The Position

At N.E.W. Community Clinic, healthcare is more than appointments and prescriptions-it's about meeting people where they are and helping them move forward with dignity, compassion, and hope. Every day, our team works alongside individuals and families in our community who may be experiencing poverty, housing instability, or barriers to accessing care. Through our medical, dental, behavioral health, WIC, and outreach programs, we ensure that everyone-regardless of their ability to pay-has access to quality, comprehensive healthcare. As an Outreach Case Manager, you will play a vital role in connecting some of our community's most vulnerable neighbors with the care, resources, and support they need to thrive. This position is perfect for someone who believes that healthcare should reach people wherever they are-whether that's in the clinic, in the community, or through our Mobile Health Unit. If you are passionate about advocacy, community impact, and building meaningful relationships with those you serve, we would love to meet you.
