The Clinical Supervisor plays a vital role in empowering their team to deliver high-quality care while navigating the operational and professional challenges of their roles. By fostering a culture of support and growth, you ensure that supervisees feel equipped to meet the needs of clients and families during some of their most vulnerable moments. Collaborating closely with program leaders, you help design and sustain systems that prioritize accessibility, responsiveness, and holistic client care. Ideal candidates are comfortable supporting direct care staff working with acute clients, maintaining a flexible schedule, and providing overnight on-call support as needed, including participation in the admin on-call rotation.

Working across programs dedicated to crisis intervention and stabilization, the Clinical Supervisor contributes to services that offer immediate, caring support to youth and families facing urgent challenges. These programs prioritize early intervention, safety planning, and the prevention of escalation, creating a bridge to long-term care and helping families regain stability and hope. Daily check-ins with staff foster a close, connected team culture, ensuring ongoing collaboration and support. Through these efforts, you play a key role in the mission to provide nurturing and life-affirming services in times of crisis.

 

ABOUT THE PROGRAMS 

The Mobile Response Team (MRT) is a 24/7 youth mobile crisis response program which supports youth and their families in crisis when there are concerns for immediate safety. The MRT service is intended to offer families, schools, and providers an alternative to calling 911 when law enforcement may not be necessary for the level of presenting concerns. The goal is to provide early intervention before crises escalate, to divert youth from more restrictive interventions, and reduce criminalization of mental health for youth. 

The Short-Term Assessment of Resources and Treatment (START) Program provides stabilization services following a crisis involving a youth within the Pierce County community. The primary goals of the START Program are suicide prevention and safety planning, ongoing crisis management and development of coping skills for youth and their families along with collaboration with other treatment team providers serving the youth. The goal is to provide crisis stabilization and linkage to long-term services while providing same day crisis services in the home or community.
