About the role
- “Housing is absolutely essential to human flourishing._
- Without stable shelter, it all falls apart.”_
- (Pulitzer Prize Winning Author Matthew Desmond)
- Located in Mt Druitt
- Full time 38 hours per week
- Contract to June 2024, with possibility of extension
- $88,288 gross per annum + super + generous salary packaging

Are you a dedicated, passionate case worker with experience in providing holistic trauma informed care? Want to make a real difference in reducing homelessness by supporting people transitioning from prison into safe and secure accommodation?

CRC is looking for people to join a team of dedicated professionals for a dynamic program. And we’d love to hear from you.
- Play a key part in our program, and contribute to long-lasting change for our clients and the community
- Join a diverse and passionate team in a flexible and supportive organisation

We want to hear from people from all backgrounds, including those with lived experience of the criminal justice system and homelessness. The skills and experiences of First Nations people will be particularly valued.

The Opportunity

As a Transition Case Worker in our Reintegration Housing Support Program (RHSP), you’ll be at the heart of a high-impact team. Supported by a Team Leader and Manager, you’ll use holistic case management to provide specialist reintegration housing and transitional support for people with complex needs who are leaving NSW Correctional Centres.

Using a throughcare model focusing on the complex transition from incarceration into housing, your role includes:

- Project and client support: You’ll actively build positive relationships with Government, community and other services to source relevant support and housing solutions. Receiving referrals, holistic case management, project administration and troubleshooting will make up most of your day. You’ll approach every task with empathy, keeping our clients’ goals front and centre.
- Creating community connections for clients: Using an outreach model pre
- and post-release, you’ll play a vital role providing clients with practical and psychosocial supports. The goal? To ensure long-term housing solutions and reduce recidivism.
- Data, administrative and assessment duties: While the majority of this job involves client-facing duties, data collection will be an important part of your role. Supported by the Team Leader and Manager, you’ll conduct general administrative duties, Workplace Health and Safety monitoring, and updating and maintaining accurate case files.
- Cultural safety: You’ll work in culturally appropriate ways in recognition of the unique cultural needs and over-representation of First Nations people in the criminal justice system.

Your usual work hours will be Monday to Friday, with occasional out-of-hours work, as required.

Why work for us?
- Support programs that aim to break entrenched cycles of disadvantage, homelessness and imprisonment
- Be part of a community-based agency that has been delivering effective services in our field for over 70 years
- Join a dedicated, energetic team with a culture of flexibility, trust, integrity and respect
- Additional Wellbeing Leave
- Access the support of Cultural Supervision for First Nations staff

CRC works with some of the state’s most stigmatised and marginalised people, and we are dedicated to providing them with the help they need. While our work can sometimes be challenging, the rewards are significant.

To join us, you’ll need:

- Experience and skills in the provision of trauma-informed care
- Knowledge and experience of working with complex and compounding needs such as homelessness, criminal justice system involvement, alcohol and other drug use, mental health and experiences of trauma
- A current NSW Driver Licence
- A current NSW Working with Children Check and Criminal Record Check (please note, a criminal record is not a barrier to being considered for a role with CRC)
- Demonstrated cultural competency and knowledge of issues relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and CALD communities
:
Do you have the skills, positivity and work ethic to match our amazing team? Please submit your response to the selection criteria and upload a copy of your resume.
