We are looking to bring a new LCSW onto one of our passionate teams in the East Bay! We have 14 primary care facilities between Contra Costa & Alameda County, serving thousands from the community who need us most. Our mission is to end community health disparities and help our clients heal through our medical, dental, and behavioral health services.
Our organization has been serving the Bay Area for more than 45 years. So, to say we know a thing or two about our community may be an understatement! Our program list is extensive but to give you an idea we offer medical care, dental care, prenatal care, supportive housing, substance use treatment, homeless services, school-based services, mental health treatment, (the list goes on…).
We’re looking for LCSWs looking to grow with us… whether you’re interested in direct client services, clinical supervision, or are ready to get into program management… we’re ready to be a part of your growth too!
Some perks as an LCSW here you’ll have a yearly stipend, sign-on bonus, loan repayment programs, and commuter benefits along with other standard goodies like medical, dental and vision. Our organization also believes work/life balance is vital to being successful in this environment. We have a generous PTO/sick leave package.
