Description:

This is an exciting opportunity to join Brittany’s Place as a Case Manager. 180 Degrees is hiring a shelter Case Manager. 

180 Degrees’ youth shelters serve adolescents ages 12–19 who are seeking safety, stability, and support during critical moments in their lives. Youth may enter shelter through county placements, or because they are experiencing homelessness, running away from home, family conflict, exploitation, or safety concerns. Many youth have experienced trauma, instability, or disrupted relationships and come to us at a time when trust, consistency, and dignity matter deeply.

The Shelter Case Manager provides intensive, relationship-based case management to youth residing in an emergency shelter. This role focuses on stabilization, safety, planning, and transition, working closely with shelter staff and community partners to support youth toward their next steps. Case Managers practice trauma-responsive, youth-centered care that emphasizes advocacy, collaboration, and clear planning—rather than control or enforcement.

This position does not have direct reports. This position is 40 hours per week, onsite. 

This position requires participation in the on-call rotation and the ability to work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends, based on the needs of residents and the realities of a young adult transitional living environment.

The Case Manager works 1:1 with residents to identify goals, strengthen skills, navigate systems, and move toward housing stability, employment, financial wellness, and long-term success using a trauma-responsive, culturally grounded, youth-driven approach.

This role centers authentic relationship, youth voice, and shared decision-making. Case managers foster a sense of safety, belonging, and connection that supports healing and forward movement. Youth lead their own journey. The case manager is the trusted, steady partner walking alongside residents, helping them explore options, understand systems, build independent living skills, and move toward greater stability and self-sufficiency.

This position does not have direct reports. This position is 40 hours per week, onsite. 

Duties and Responsibilities include the following. Other duties may be assigned.

1. Direct Case Management with Youth

• Provide 1:1 case management primarily through in-person meetings, with phone, text, and virtual communication used as appropriate to the situation.
• Meet with youth 1–3 times per week, with increased contact during intake, transition periods, or times of higher need.
• Conduct thorough intakes, including required screenings and assessments that directly inform the youth’s case plan.
• Support youth in identifying goals and taking concrete, achievable steps toward stability and next steps.
• When appropriate, accompany youth to appointments, meetings, or services to advocate for and support access to care.

5. Documentation and Data Management

• Complete timely and accurate documentation in Power180 (electronic client record system), paper client records, and HMIS, REDCap, or other required systems.
• Ensure all required client records are current, complete, and well-organized, including case plans and updates; transition and discharge documentation; safety and risk management plans; screenings; assessments; and progress notes.
• Monitor youth progress toward goals and ensure documentation aligns with licensing, grant, and internal quality standards.
• Following a youth’s discharge, conduct a final review of all client records to ensure documentation is complete, accurate, and closed out appropriately.

6. Shelter Leadership and On-Call Responsibilities

• Serve as a leader within the shelter, modeling trauma-responsive practice, professionalism, and clear boundaries.
