Opportunity text

In coordination with the service district Corpsmember Development staff (CD), the counselor provides counseling to Corpsmembers. Growing from that core element, the on-site counselor provides an expanded array of services such as: individual and group counseling, support groups, education and personal development classes/workshops (such as sexual assault prevention), peer leadership development, peer counseling, staff consultation and training, identifying and engaging Corpsmembers into the counseling program and referral to community services. In other words, the on-site counselor will work in conjunction with the CD and center staff in developing the overall design of the center on-site counseling program. It is expected that the counselor will address Corpsmember problems on three levels: crisis intervention, case management, and education. Due to the limited amount of counseling hours available, it would be impractical to use a counselor's time to provide Corpsmembers with lengthy and intensive therapy. Therefore, the approach needs to be one of short-term crisis counseling, education and linking Corpsmembers with community resources for longer term care, and education/support activities, with the Contractor monitoring progress. Full details regarding the scope of work can be found in Exhibit A of the IFB packet.
