This role is also designed to support residents in various justice-involved programs. You will plan, design, and facilitate recreational programs, life skills activities, and events to promote mental, emotional, and physical wellness; assist residents in managing their conditions and compliance with treatment orders; provide help with activities of daily living, and dispense medications; and serve as partner to security staff by contributing to safety, incident response, searches, headcounts, intake processing, and proactive de-escalation.

Builds therapeutic rapport with residents and keeps State Case Managers informed of resident progress, needs, and engagement.
Conducts new resident arrival intakes and departing resident releases.
