About the Program and Position:
Our Transitional Foster Care Program for Unaccompanied Children (UC) overseen by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), ensures the well-being and safety of unaccompanied children (ages 0-17) who cross the US Southern border without an adult. Unlike traditional congregate care settings, our approach involves placing unaccompanied children in foster homes while diligently searching for and assessing potential sponsors identified in the US. During their stay with us, we provide medical care, case management, engaging life skills classes, and essential mental health services.
The Assistant Vice President of Case Management will supervise the Directors of Case Management and Assistant Directors of Case Managers within our NYC region. The Assistant Vice President of Case Management will audit the quality of the case management procedures to ensure consistent and high-quality services for all youth.
