Crisis Case Manager

CBEM brings lasting, positive changes to the individuals with developmental disabilities we serve, some of whom experience mental illness. Our process begins with observations from which we design a comprehensive plan. It continues on as we teach our clients and their circle of support how to obtain positive, sustainable outcomes.

$3,000 sign-on bonus available. $1,000 after successfully completing 30 days, $1,000 after successful completion of 90 day introductory period, and $1,000 at 6 months or relocation package available.

Applicants who speak Spanish, Cantonese, Mandarin, and/or Tagalog are STRONGLY encouraged to apply.

Additionally, applicants that do not live in either San Mateo, San Francisco, or Marin counties, will not be considered, given the requirements of the crisis response time.

The Crisis Case Manager/Critical Intervention Specialist works in a 2-person team to manage a caseload of clients that are referred to us by the Golden Gate Regional Center, covering throughout the Marin, San Francisco, and San Mateo counties and participates in weekly Clinical and administrative meetings at our South San Francisco office.

Our ideal candidate would be someone who is graduating or graduated from a Master's program for Social Work, Psychology, Counseling, Marriage and Family Therapy, or another related field. They would be a road warrior; who would have no issues driving in and around the respective coverage area and responding to crises. Our ideal candidate would have previous experience advocating, supporting, stabilizing, or working with those with either intellectual and/or developmental disabilities and their inner and outer circle. They would be adaptable - being comfortable with working independently the field, but ready to jump into a team at the office, in order to create a cohesive collaboration; bringing in your individual expertise to the forefront. The SF team might be small but they are mighty!
