Case Manager (Cs) Jobs

The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), and the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) historically cares for Unaccompanied Children (UC) crossing into the United States. As required by the Flores Settlement Agreement, ORR must deliver safe, child-friendly care for these children. ORR needs a trusted partner to manage and provide a full spectrum of services. The primary goal of ORR care is to place children in family settings that are safe and will remain safe for the child. Within the ORR network, case managers act as family reunification specialists. Case managers drive the reunification process, which requires developing quality relationships with UCs, potential sponsors, and family in home countries; uncovering and addressing gaps and inconsistencies in stories that might point to situations of trafficking or other insecure placements; and supporting sponsors through the sponsor-vetting process so that UCs are reunified as quickly as possible. In support of this program, iParametrics will provide on-site case management services. Case managers navigate the barriers to reunification posed in each case, while developing quality relationships with the youth, sponsor, and family in the home country. These relationships are at the core of meeting the needs and best interests of UCs, and to the trauma-responsive care that many children require.
