Position Highlights
CCPD, based in Salem, Oregon, is hiring a Behavioral Health Programs Analyst (Analyst 4).

As a subject matter expert, you will be a resource for judges, trial court administrators, and court staff by assessing and developing court business processes, researching best practices, and providing guidance and training. You will create forms, webinars, guides, and bench books. You will also provide administrative and analytical support to a variety of committees and workgroups, including the Chief Justice’s Behavioral Health Advisory Committee. As part of a statewide behavioral health team, you will educate judges, court staff, and program partners about best practices and ensure that they have the support they need to implement improvements. You will facilitate monthly meetings and peer support for Aid & Assist Coordinators, and you will troubleshoot communication and process issues between the courts and the Oregon State Hospital, Oregon Health Authority, and other system partners.
