Case Manager - Substance Abuse

Job Description

Job Description

The Veterans Life Center is a residential program designed to help at-risk 21st Century male and female veterans. It is our goal to provide each of our residents the prospect of a constructive and personally satisfying role in civil society. By strengthening their mental fitness and physical health, improving life skills and providing vocational training, we will guide them to career opportunities and community reintegration, averting all-too-frequent crises such as homelessness, incarceration, suicide and premature death.

The idea was started by a small group of young veterans with no experience and no funding, who earned the respect and support of local, state and Federal leaders. Relentlessly, they have fought off the red tape and the naysayers and brought their vision to reality.

Looking to be part of a team that's high energy because you were selected for your skills, creativity and compassion to serve? We are seeking a Case Manager with vast SUD experience to join our team, if this is you - submit your application now!

Duties and Responsibilities

Company Description

The Veterans Life Center is a 100-bed residential program designed to help at-risk male and female 21st-century military veterans ages 19 to mid-forties. We assist by providing the tools to strengthen their mental and physical health, improving life skills, and providing access / coordination to vocational training. Also guide these residents to career opportunities and community reintegration. Our programmatic goal is to avert the all-too-frequent crises such as chronic homelessness, incarceration, suicide, and premature death. Our comprehensive and systematic approach is designed to provide each of our residents the prospect of a constructive and personally rewarding role in civil society. The ultimate goal of the VLC is to help every resident achieve self-reliance.

We have a rigorous assessment process, which enables us to identify the specific needs of each veteran. Once accepted, each veteran will work with a VLC case manager to develop their own reintegration program and be guided into one of our five tracks. Their length of stay varies dependent upon their needs.

Residents live in double rooms in each of the three wings. The campus includes a computer lab, fitness center, a chapel, meditation garden, dining facility, library, two laundry rooms and dayrooms.

If you are interested in making a difference by working in an environment that provides veterans with a stable residential setting to pursue career and transition goals, while instilling supportive life skills, a sense of accountability, and the confidence for success - please apply now.
