Continued Care Case Manager
Title: Continued Care Case Manager
Reports To: Programs Manager/Assistant Program Director
Salary Range: $55k
Employment Type: Full-Time Salaried Non-Exempt
About us:
Founded in 2000 as a winter-only, overnight shelter for women, The Delores Project has grown
to offer low-barrier, housing-focused 24-7 shelter for unaccompanied adult women,
transgender and nonbinary people, supportive housing for formerly chronically homeless
individuals with a disability, and a robust suite of wrap-around services including on-site
behavioral healthcare. The organization also provides community-based aftercare services for
clients who have transitioned from homelessness to housing.
At The Delores Project, we believe community and belonging are essential to healing from the
trauma of homelessness and this is one way we differentiate ourselves from many other
homeless service providers. In addition to a shelter, we are a community that not only meets
people’s basic needs and provides access to housing resources, but we also provide clients with
a supportive community in a fully therapeutic environment so they can begin to heal from the
trauma of homelessness and are more successful in maintaining housing and stability once they
graduate from our programs. We are client-centered and strengths-based in our approach and
practice of harm-reduction and trauma-informed models of care in all our programs. Our
engagement with one another is rooted in our values of hospitality, integrity, collaboration,
transparency, accountability, respect, and dignity for each community member, including staff
and volunteers. Those who share these values, are passionate about working with people in
crisis, and ending homelessness may be a great addition to our diverse and talented team.
