Connect Veterans to Support. Strengthen Hope. Help Build a Path Forward. Reduce the 22 per Day.

At the Center for Veterans Issues, Inc. (CVI), every connection is an opportunity to help a Veteran move toward greater stability, safety, and well-being.

As a Case Manager with our Staff Sergeant Parker Gordon Fox Suicide Prevention Program, you will help eligible Veterans, Service members, and qualifying family members access resources, overcome barriers, and build meaningful support networks. Through compassionate engagement, individualized planning, and dependable follow-through, your work will support a mission dedicated to preventing Veteran suicide.

This primarily nonclinical role calls for someone who combines empathy with sound judgment, strong organization, and a commitment to turning referrals into real connections.

Why Join CVI?

Your work can help Veterans feel heard, access essential resources, and build connections that support lasting stability. You will contribute to a mission grounded in dignity and guided by CVI’s core values: Professionalism, Respect, Integrity, Dedication, and Excellence.

If you bring compassion, initiative, and dependable follow-through to serving Veterans and their families, we would love to meet you.

What You’ll Do

Reach and Engage Veterans

Conduct outreach, particularly to individuals unaffiliated with VA and those in rural or underserved communities. Explain services, participant rights, confidentiality, and VA enrollment opportunities. Use trauma-informed, culturally responsive engagement and document outreach, enrollment decisions, and barriers.

Support Eligibility and Screening

Verify military-status eligibility and document required suicide-risk screening, degree of risk, VA affiliation, notices, and baseline-screening status before services begin. Use approved screening tools within your training and authorization, identify participant strengths and needs, and immediately escalate urgent safety or clinical concerns.

Build Individualized Plans and Coordinate Support

Develop and update service plans that reflect each participant’s priorities, risks, strengths, and protective factors. Coordinate approved resources addressing housing, healthcare, employment, benefits, transportation, basic needs, and family or recovery supports. Assist with safety planning and crisis coordination when trained and authorized, while maintaining nonclinical boundaries and following field-safety procedures.

Turn Referrals into Connections

Initiate required VA and community referrals and provide warm handoffs when practicable. Help participants navigate scheduling, transportation, and authorized information sharing. Collaborate with VA facilities, County and Tribal Veteran Service Offices, the Wisconsin Veterans Outreach and Recovery Program, and community providers. Follow referrals to documented outcomes and support transition planning at exit.

Maintain Reliable Records and Follow-Through

Keep timely, accurate, confidential, and audit-ready records of screenings, plans, contacts, referrals, assistance, progress, and exit activities. Manage your assigned caseload, meet participant-contact expectations, and document missed contacts and outreach attempts. Participate in supervision, case staffing, training, and quality reviews; promptly communicate safety, workload, or compliance concerns.
