Incumbents possess a degree of knowledge and proficiency sufficient to perform work independently with little or no additional training. The Division of Child and Family Services (DCFS) is recruiting for a Mental Health Counselor 2 position within the Engagement Team (ET) and the Intensive Step-Down (ISD) Team. The Mobile Crisis Response Team (MCRT) developed two specialized programs to provide more intensive and targeted in-home services: Engagement Team (ET) and Intensive Step-Down (ISD) Team. The overall goal for the ET and ISD Team is to reduce the need for higher level of care placements by helping youth and families develop stability in the home. ET/ISD Teams can work with families for up to 90 days. Both programs serve youth with complex behavioral and mental health needs. The Engagement Teams serve youth between 5 and 18 years with severe emotional disturbances (SED) who are involved in multiple systems and have recently engaged in a crisis response with MCRT. These youth do not typically need acute psychiatric hospitalization, but do need short-term intensive, in-home and community-based supports to remain safely in their homes and communities. The Intensive Step-Down Team serves youth 5-18 years old with Serious Emotional Disability (SED) who are multi-system involved and are transitioning from highly structured 24/7 care facilities back to their homes and communities. These youth often have a history of multiple, out of home placements. ET-ISD clinicians complete stabilization services for youth through individual and/or family therapy. ET-ISD clinicians are assigned fewer families due to increased intensity and frequency of visits, averaging about two to three a week. ET-ISD clinicians provide crisis support for assigned families, as needed.
