Description

• Side-by-Side Collaboration: Work as a colleague alongside Clubhouse members to complete the daily tasks required to run the Clubhouse units (e.g., culinary, administration, media, outreach).
• Generalist Staff Approach: Fully participate in all Clubhouse activities, avoiding a traditional "staff vs. client" dynamic, and helping ensure adherence to Clubhouse International Standards.

• Resource Navigation: Assist members in understanding, accessing, and self-navigating public transit, healthcare systems, housing resources, and social entitlements across San Diego County.

• Vocational Support: Assist members on Transitional, Supported, and Independent Employment job sites, which may include providing job coaching and coverage as needed.
• Educational Advocacy: Support members who are pursuing GED tracks, community college classes, or vocational training.
• Proactive Reach-Out: Participate in the Clubhouse "reach-out" system, checking on members who are absent, hospitalized, or experiencing a crisis to reduce isolation.

• Documentation: Complete daily service logs and required contract tracking in alignment with San Diego County Behavioral Health Services (BHS) and Medi-Cal standards.
• Team Participation: Attend staff meetings, member-staff meetings, and programmatic training sessions, contributing a distinct peer-recovery perspective.

• Lived Experience: Self-identify as a current or former consumer of mental health services, with at least one year of stable, demonstrated personal recovery.
• Certification: California Certified Peer Support Specialist (Medi-Cal) highly preferred at hire, or a commitment to complete certification within a designated timeframe.
• Education: High School Diploma or GED equivalent required.
