• Facilitate support meetings and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure comprehensive, person-centered care.
• Contribute to quality improvement efforts and positive client outcomes through effective crisis response and care coordination.
• Participate in the program's rotating on-call schedule as assigned.

What You Bring
