    Descripción

    The RightWay Foundation is a Los Angeles non-profit that helps transition-age foster youth (ages 17-26+) get and keep good jobs and stable housing despite the overwhelming trauma they have endured throughout their lives. RightWay works to ensure system-involved youths have access to resources and supportive services that empower them to build stable adulthoods, grounded in mental health and solidified through employment and permanent housing. As they age out of the foster care system, foster youths experience disproportionate rates of trauma, homelessness, incarceration, and food insecurity. RightWay provides the support and tools youths need to build a sustainable future for themselves. The Director of Mental Health is responsible for a comprehensive range of therapeutic services that support the prevention, intervention, diagnosis, and treatment of mental health disorders, per the DSM-5. The Director of Mental Health will provide clinical and administrative supervision to Clinical Youth Specialists (Therapists), Job Developers/Case Managers, and Housing Navigators who offer an array of supportive services to youth participants, including, but not limited to, case management, employment services, mental health services, and housing support.
