At Action Based Enterprises and the Hillside Alternative Program, we know that academic success begins with stability, connection, and care. Our Case Manager / Social Worker plays a vital role in making sure every student's social, emotional, and family needs are met - so they can show up ready to learn, grow, and thrive. As our program expands to serve more students, this role has never been more essential.
???? About the Role
As a Case Manager / Social Worker, you will serve as a critical bridge between our students, their families, and the broader support systems that help them succeed. You'll work closely with educators, therapists, and program staff to ensure that each student's individual circumstances are understood, respected, and actively supported.
Our students have been diagnosed with emotional disorders, intellectual disabilities, or other developmental challenges. Many come from complex home environments. Your work will directly impact their stability, safety, and long-term trajectory. Due to our expanding enrollment and the addition of new vocational programming, this is a uniquely rewarding time to join our team.
???? Key Responsibilities
In this role, you will:
- Develop, coordinate, and monitor individualized case plans for students in collaboration with educators, therapists, and families
- Serve as the primary point of contact for families, building trusting relationships and ensuring consistent communication
- Conduct home visits, family meetings, and community outreach as needed to support student well-being
- Coordinate with external agencies, service providers, and community resources to connect students and families with appropriate supports
- Assist students in developing social-emotional skills, coping strategies, and self-advocacy tools
- Support the transition of students into vocational programming by coordinating wrap-around services and community linkages
- Maintain accurate, timely case documentation and records in compliance with program requirements
- Participate in multi-disciplinary team meetings, IEP/ISP processes, and program planning discussions
- Identify and respond to crises with appropriate interventions and referrals
The ideal candidate is a compassionate, resourceful professional who thrives in a dynamic, student-centered environment. We're looking for someone who brings:
- Empathy & Emotional Intelligence: You genuinely connect with students and families navigating difficult circumstances, meeting them with patience and understanding.
- Strong Communication Skills: You can clearly and compassionately communicate with students, families, colleagues, and outside agencies across a range of situations.
- Organizational Excellence: You manage multiple cases, deadlines, and documentation requirements with accuracy and calm.
- Collaborative Spirit: You thrive as part of a multidisciplinary team and understand that the best outcomes happen when everyone works together.
- Knowledge of Community Resources: You know how to connect families with the right services - or you're eager to learn and build those relationships.
- Commitment to Equity: You believe every student deserves access to support, regardless of their background or diagnosis, and you advocate fiercely for that.
This isn't just a job - it's a calling. Here's what makes our program a place you'll be proud to work:
- ???? A Program on the Rise: We're growing - more students, new vocational programming, and expanded services. Join us now and help shape what comes next.
- ???? Truly Collaborative Team: You'll work alongside dedicated educators who share your commitment to every student's success.
- ???? Whole-Child Philosophy: We address academic, behavioral, vocational, and therapeutic needs together - your case management work will be valued as an essential part of that whole.
- ???? Small Caseloads, Real Relationships: Our intentional student-to-staff ratios mean you'll truly know your students and families, not just manage them from a distance.
- ???? Vocational Programming Support: Play a key role in connecting students to our expanding vocational services, helping them build independence and real-world readiness.
- ⚖️ Equity & Inclusion at Our Core: We are committed to creating an environment where every student can thrive - and we need team members who share that commitment deeply.
