As a Community Career Specialist with our nonprofit, you're responsible for providing case management services to those receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) benefits. After establishing trust and rapport with participants, you conduct comprehensive intakes to help them understand and explore their needs, strengths, interests, aptitudes, experiences, and capabilities. You work with participants to develop a service plan outlining their short- and long-term employment goals as well as other goals consistent with their skills, interests, and preferences.
In addition, you meet with participants at least once a month to discuss their progress and provide ongoing orientation to ensure they understand their benefits and program requirements. You build effective partnerships with external providers to ensure participants have the necessary resources to succeed and make requests for additional support services as applicable. When participants miss an appointment, you reach out and help them reschedule. You also run reports in our FedcapCARES system and use that data to plan daily and weekly tasks. Having a job that uses your vocational rehabilitation and customer service skills to help others brings you great satisfaction, which is why you thrive in this community case management position with our human services nonprofit!
