The SSP provides comprehensive support to particularly vulnerable immigrant adults, children and youth, and families navigating immigration proceedings, including adults detained by ICE in Aurora. SSP supports individuals with behavioral health challenges, physical and mental disabilities, and other social and systemic experiences that increase their risks of violence, instability, or deportation.

This position is meant for a person with a bachelor's degree in social work or a related field, dedicated to challenging social injustice and who values the inherent dignity and worth of each person we serve.

Responsibilities:

• Provide collaborative and client-centered case management through assessment and goal setting, service and resource coordination, and progress and outcome monitoring.
• Utilize empowerment, anti-oppressive, and trauma-informed approaches to help clients manage overwhelm, isolation, and other practical and emotional obstacles of goal attainment.
• Navigate complex social service systems and resources creatively, persistently, and effectively to advocate for and help clients and their support networks understand and access benefits and resources.
• Link clients to essential services such as food, housing, healthcare, schooling, and financial aid.
• Meet with clients at the ICE detention facility in Aurora.
• Accompany clients to court and appointments, as needed.
• Assist SSP colleagues with resource connections needed for post-release planning for clients detained in ICE custody.
• Provide resource and benefits navigation assistance to RMIAN colleagues working in our legal programs.
• Cultivate and expand RMIAN's community partnerships with organizations that serve our clients and their communities.
• Update and manage internal SSP resource databases and community-facing resources.
• Maintain accurate and up to date client and program records through RMIAN's electronic case and program management systems.
• Develop and maintain good organizational systems to track client needs and community resources.
• Participate in organization-wide expectations: attending staff meetings and relevant team meetings; completing time sheets and expense reports; and serving on RMIAN internal committees.
• Participate in RMIAN's outreach, community education, and development efforts.

Required Skills and Experience:

• Bachelor's degree in social work, psychology, counseling or a related field OR minimum two years of work experience in the behavioral health field
• Professional level of English and Spanish fluency both oral and written
• Deep dedication to immigrant justice, as well as competency and willingness to learn and grow in providing services to LGBTQ+ clients, differently abled clients, and clients across other social differences, including exposure to oppression and marginalization
• Excellent communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills
• Proactive and innovative problem-solving skills
• Strong organizational and time management skills

The Ideal Candidate:

• Is dedicated to client-centered, trauma-informed and strengths-based social work practice in an interdisciplinary and collaborative, legal service setting.
• Has a strong commitment to honoring the dignity and worth of all, including those who are detained, have criminal legal history, varying levels of education and literacy, or experience serious physical or mental illness.
• Demonstrates empathy, active listening, and excellent problem-solving abilities, and easily relates to, communicates with, and builds rapport with a broad range of clients and colleagues.
• Is team-oriented and works in collaboration with RMIAN staff members, clients, and community partners while also being able to manage casework and deadlines independently.
