Maintain a minimum caseload engagement standard (e.g., six active client contacts per week, as required).
Educate clients on benefits (e.g., SSI, Medicaid) and how employment may impact them to support informed decision-making.
Refer clients to benefits counseling and assist with wage reporting as needed.
Provide individualized, ongoing support to help clients obtain and maintain employment.
Conduct outreach to re-engage clients who may disengage from services, using various communication methods.

Training & Experience:

Minimum of three (3) years of experience providing supportive employment services.
High school diploma or GED required.
ACRE Certification (Basic or Professional Level) – required.
