Clinical Case Manager

The role teaches and reinforces skills in problem-solving, social connection, executive functioning, and other areas relevant to each person’s goals.

The Clinical Case Manager brings curiosity, uses motivational interviewing and engagement techniques, remains open to new ideas, and collaborates with Open Sky colleagues, families, funders, providers, and other community partners.

All Open Sky staff promote community membership by connecting or reconnecting people served to meaningful opportunities and mutually supportive relationships while promoting wellness. The Clinical Case Manager delivers services through a person-centered, trauma-informed lens and demonstrates a steadfast commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging.
