Position Summary:  The FCCP is a community-based child welfare prevention program. The FCCP assists families in identifying and addressing their immediate and long-term needs. The FCCP utilizes both a strength-based and wraparound approach, meaning a family’s needs are met by identifying and building upon their existing strengths and by identifying and utilizing their natural support. A key piece of the wraparound process is FSCC’s assisting families in breaking down their needs/goals into manageable steps and providing referrals to both local and state resources that can assist them in meeting these goals. The focus of the FCCP is to help families identify what they hope and dream for their future; we call this their family vision. We place a high value on family voice and choice and thus when developing a family’s goals, the family is empowered to lead the process. The FSCC assists families in identifying and building a Wraparound team composed of their family, friends, and providers. These supports are tasked with assisting and cheering the family on as they take steps toward the realization of their goals. The FSCC is responsible for facilitating regularly scheduled team meetings during which progress is celebrated, and barriers toward goal achievement are problem solved as a team. This dynamic position offers exciting opportunities to develop skills related to assessment writing and treatment planning, learn about local and state resources, and to become certified as a Wraparound FSCC. Within this role you will have the opportunity to collaborate with families to solve challenges and serve as a strong advocate while providing consistent and empowering support.

Qualifications:

• Requires minimum of Bachelor degree and/or 2 years of experience, working with children and families with complex needs, at risk for involvement in the child welfare system.
• FSCCs are required to become certified in the Wraparound process within one year of employment. Training for certification is provided by the program.
• Bilingual/ASL skills are compensated by an additional 6%, above base pay.
