Case Manager

Overview

Coordinated Care Agency (CCA), a dba of the Archdiocesan Housing Authority, offers comprehensive services, enhanced shelter, and housing for people experiencing deep poverty and homelessness.

The purpose of our work is to ensure that people have access to the healthcare and supports that they need to thrive. The team works to promote social changes to dismantle systemic racism, injustices and inequities that contribute to housing instability. We approach our clients and colleagues through a trauma informed lens, based on the knowledge and understanding of how trauma affects people's lives.

The Case Manager provides engagement and supportive services using a harm reduction approach to stigmatized populations which may include people who have substance use disorders, engagement with child welfare systems, have significant mental health diagnoses or physical health issues. Our programs include 24/7 enhanced shelter, permanent supportive housing, day centers, street outreach, scattered sites housing stabilization programs, and integrated health clinics.

The emphasis is on meeting individuals “where they are at” and providing non-judgmental, non-coercive services and resources to individuals with a focus on housing stabilization. The Case Manager will work directly with participants to obtain/maintain stabilized permanent housing and to develop an individualized stability plan. Case Managers will work closely with various providers, support services, and community resources.
