Family Treatment Rehabilitation Supervisor (FT) Job at Graham Windham
Salary 65K + Merit + Benefits
Graham Windham is one of the first organizations in New York City to implement Solution-Based Casework (SBC). Solution-Based Casework helps children and families to be the solution to the seemingly insurmountable problems in their lives, from generational cycles of poverty, abuse, and neglect to unemployment, domestic violence, and severe health problems. By recognizing and reinforcing their innate strengths and ability to cope, we at Graham Windham empower them to take the lead in making changes in their lives.
About the Program:
The Family Treatment/ Rehabilitation Program (FTR) offers intensive preventive case management services to families at risk of removal of children to foster care due to neglect and abuse. Risk factors for families served by the FTR program are sometimes advanced as a result of caretakers’ drug use and/ or mental illness. The stressors of poverty, substance use, instability and criminal justice involvement, parental depression, family stress, substance use, or domestic violence can greatly compromise a parent’s capacity to care for her children, despite strong desires to be engaged. Using Solution-Based Casework, we actively work with parents to help them develop a more active, consistent, and productive role in their child’s educational and social development; we encourage families to build connections to positive supports in their community who will help them sustain their progress.
