• Strengthen intake, assessment, referral, counseling, follow-up, discharge, documentation, and outcome-tracking processes.
• Help build and expand an accessible counseling service that serves both existing program participants and the broader community.
• Partner with leadership to enhance responsiveness, continuity of care, client satisfaction, and measurable outcomes.
• As the division grows, this role is expected to play a key role in the recruitment, onboarding, mentoring, and development of future counselors and therapists while helping strengthen clinical practices, consultation processes, and quality-improvement efforts.

Program Integration & Growth Opportunities

• DUI Counseling Integration: Strengthen and expand counseling support for DUI participants through continued collaboration with DUI education and case-management services.
• SSA & Family Services: Collaborate with the Counseling & Connection Program Coordinator and SSA team to support assigned cases, family-focused counseling, and related services.
• Anger Management & Specialized Services: Lead efforts to strengthen anger-management services and support the development of additional behavioral health and psychoeducational programs.
• Concierge Counseling & Connection: Lead the re-establishment of Counseling & Connection as an accessible pathway to counseling, coaching, family support, and behavioral health resources.
• Insurance & Third-Party Development: Partner with leadership to support the development of insurance- and third-party-funded service opportunities, including credentialing, reimbursement, and sustainable funding pathways.
• Referral Development: Build relationships with courts, attorneys, county agencies, schools, healthcare providers, treatment programs, employers, and community organizations.
