Serve as a liaison between clients and healthcare providers, behavioral health professionals, and community agencies. Facilitate referrals, coordinate services, and assist participants in navigating healthcare systems and accessing preventive, prenatal, postpartum, and specialty care.

Maintain timely, accurate, and complete documentation in accordance with agency standards, funding requirements, and regulatory guidelines. Assist with program data collection, reporting, and quality improvement initiatives.

Team Collaboration

Participate in multidisciplinary team meetings, case consultations, and program planning activities. Work closely with counselors, case managers, healthcare providers, and other professionals to support coordinated, client-centered care.

What You Will Bring:

Experience
