Domestic Violence Case Manager; Ada

Who is CATCH?

Every Family. Every Person. A Home. A deep belief that everyone deserves stable and permanent housing is at the core of our culture. We end homelessness for families in Idaho’s Treasure Valley by inspiring stable housing, financial independence, and resilience. Each year, we co-create a new story for over 220 people.

Ada County DV Case Manager serves our Rapid Re-Housing program in Ada County by managing a caseload of families experiencing homelessness. The Case Manager will partner with families to co-create a housing plan and move them into permanent housing quickly. From there, the Case Manager will support families in building financial and personal stability, always through a trauma-informed, client-centered approach. Success in this role depends not only on task execution, but on how you show up: with empathy, cultural humility, collaboration, and a fierce belief in each person's right to housing.

Our Case Managers embody a culture of collaboration and resilience, not just inside the office but in the broader community. CATCH strives to lead the homelessness interventions throughout Idaho, and this position plays a key role in building partnerships and advocating to end homelessness.

It is the policy of CATCH to ensure equal employment opportunity without discrimination or harassment on the basis of race (including hairstyle/texture), color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, marital status, citizenship, national origin, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by law. CATCH prohibits any such discrimination or harassment.

CATCH is committed to valuing diverse experiences and encourages individuals with personal experiences to apply. Your lived experience can be regarded as equally important as professional work experience in our organization. A “lived expert” is someone who has direct, personal experience with the issues our organization addresses, such as overcoming challenges related to mental health, substance use, experiencing homelessness, or the carceral system.

This valuable insight comes from first hand involvement rather than formal training, and it brings a unique and important perspective to our work.
