    Description

    As a Mental Health and Counseling Coordinator, you'll provide crucial support to refugee and immigrant families, predominantly African adults and children, through Unite Us, email, and phone contact. You'll locate free or public mental health services, including specialized child psychologists. While AUCC funding is available for therapy sessions, you'll prioritize finding no-cost options first. You'll maintain sensitive data on mental health service needs for our Data team while respecting client privacy, and participate in community discussions to reduce stigma and expand accessible mental health care.
