Can you help a Veteran turn a maze of systems, appointments, and urgent needs into a clear path forward? The Transition House, Inc. is seeking a compassionate, resourceful Veteran Case Manager to provide community-based, non-clinical suicide-prevention case management through our Veteran Connection and Suicide Prevention Program.

In this role, you will help Veterans reduce barriers, strengthen protective factors, navigate VA and community systems, and stay connected to individualized services and supports. Participants may be experiencing housing instability, unemployment, financial hardship, behavioral-health or substance-use concerns, social isolation, family stress, justice involvement, transportation barriers, or disconnection from VA services.

Veterans and candidates with direct experience serving Veterans and Veteran families are strongly encouraged to apply. If you are skilled at building trust, coordinating across systems, documenting carefully, and staying steady when someone needs immediate support, we would like to meet you.

• Develop and update individualized suicide-prevention service plans while managing an assigned caseload at a frequency based on participant risk, need, and goals.

• Help Veterans access VA healthcare, VA homeless services, benefits, housing, employment, public benefits, transportation, legal and reentry resources, behavioral-health referrals, identification documents, and other stabilization supports.
• Coordinate warm handoffs through direct provider contact, appointment coordination, transportation assistance when appropriate, and follow-up to confirm a successful connection.
• Work closely with Veteran Peer Support Specialists and the Veteran Community Outreach and Reentry Specialist to strengthen engagement, retention, and service connection.

• Identify suicide risk, immediate safety concerns, behavioral-health concerns, and psychosocial risk factors through required screening and ongoing participant engagement.
