Description:

We’re hiring a Social Worker to support individuals experiencing homelessness — ideal for someone who’s empathetic, street-smart, and passionate about outreach and connection. You’ll meet with patients and their families to assess emotional, financial, and social needs during hospitalization. You’ll help assess basic needs such as food, shelter, medical care, addiction treatment, and mental health support. You’ll support families facing divorce, custody issues, financial hardship, health crises, or emotional disconnection. You’ll assist in crisis intervention, supporting students experiencing bullying, neglect, abuse, or sudden loss. You’ll help clients build coping strategies, set realistic goals, and work through crises with patience and structure. You’ll assist with home visits, school meetings, and community referrals as part of a whole-family support model. You’ll be trained in HIPAA compliance, cultural sensitivity, and trauma-informed care practices within the hospital setting. You’ll document visits, referrals, and outcomes while maintaining confidentiality and trauma-informed practices.

Basic Qualifications:

• Participate in training, supervision, and continuing education to stay informed on best practices.
• Balance large caseloads while ensuring each client receives consistent attention and care.
• Attend case conferences, court hearings, or interdisciplinary meetings as a client advocate.
• Facilitate support groups or workshops on topics like parenting, coping skills, or life transitions.
• Document services thoroughly for reporting, auditing, or funding purposes.

Preferred:

• Able to maintain appropriate boundaries, manage stress, and practice self-care in emotionally demanding environments.
• Strong interpersonal skills to build trust, defuse conflict, and support clients through emotional or practical challenges.
• Wants to grow into roles like Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Case Manager, or Program Director.
• Values empathy, accountability, and empowerment in every client interaction.
• Willing to conduct home visits, school visits, or community outreach depending on program requirements.

Benefits:

• Ability to build lasting relationships — you’ll create bonds that go beyond just a job.
• Access to community resources — you’ll be well-equipped to help clients access the services they need.
• Competitive pay — your dedication and expertise are rewarded with a fair salary.
• Clear career progression — whether you want to specialize or move into management, we offer growth opportunities.
• A job that matters — you’ll leave work each day knowing you’ve helped someone improve their life.

You’ll provide emergency support when families face eviction, abuse, neglect, or sudden loss, offering stability and immediate options. You’ll help young people develop coping skills, build resilience, and set goals for school, home, and community life. You’ll be expected to remain nonjudgmental, consistent, and creative when solutions aren’t straightforward or immediate. You’ll follow professional codes of ethics, uphold client dignity, and practice cultural sensitivity in every interaction. You’ll be a steady source of calm during high-stress conversations, guiding families toward empathy and shared goals. You’ll balance documentation, direct service, and outreach — often adapting hour by hour to meet client needs. You’ll work in office settings, schools, hospitals, shelters, or directly in the community, depending on the caseload. No two days will be the same — and that’s why your compassion, resilience, and resourcefulness matter so much. If you’re ready to help people rebuild their lives with dignity and guidance, we’re ready to welcome you as a Social Worker.
