Responsibilities

Community outreach & patient engagement: Meet people where they are—street‑level outreach, community partners, and phone‑based connections—to encourage entry into care

Warm handoffs into treatment: Guide individuals through intake, paperwork, and first appointments; help them understand MAT options (e.g., methadone, buprenorphine/Suboxone) and what to expect

Peer support & education: Share recovery‑informed strategies, reduce stigma, and coach through early‑recovery challenges

Resource navigation: Connect participants to wraparound supports (housing resources, benefits, primary care, mental health, transportation planning, etc.)

Collaboration & documentation: Coordinate with clinical/admin staff for continuity of care; complete timely, accurate notes that meet program and regulatory standards

Build the function: This is a brand‑new position—bring creativity, structure, and follow‑through to shape how outreach and peer services run

Important: This role involves driving your own vehicle for outreach. No patient transport is required
