Job Description
***THIS POSITION IS ELIGIBLE TO BE FULLY REMOTE***
Background:
The International Rescue Committee (IRC) helps people whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover, and gain control of their future. Founded in 1933, the IRC is at work today in over 40 countries and 29 U.S. cities. The IRC’s Resettlement, Asylum and Integration (RAI) department creates opportunities for refugees and other vulnerable migrants to gain stability and control of their future. RAI serves more than 50,000 individuals each year, through a diverse portfolio of programs aimed at five core outcomes: Health, Safety, Economic Wellbeing, Education and Power. IRC’s safety and wellness programs help heal and rebuild communities that have been deeply affected by grief, loss, and displacement by providing mental health and psychosocial support, mental health and interpersonal violence screening, and referral as needed to more specialized supports.
Job Overview:
The Clinical Social Worker – Child Protection provides a combination of capacity building, staff supervision, and supervision of complex cases to IRC’s unaccompanied minor programming, as well as provides support to other emergent issues related to child protection in the U.S. This role will help ensure that services and supports that are delivered to unaccompanied minors and other children enrolled in IRC services are done in alignment with trauma-informed, developmentally appropriate, and culturally informed best practices. The position will also help ensure that staff have the training, coaching and consultation support they need to manage complex or urgent cases involving minors so that they are resolved with the safest possible outcomes. While the position is centered on the support of unaccompanied children and other children, the Clinical Social Worker should also advance IRC’s family strengthening service capacity to help ensure the safety and stability of children within their home. The Clinical Social Worker is expected to advance frameworks, guidance, training materials, manuals and other resources in alignment with federal, state, local and donor requirements and IRC global guidelines. This role will partner closely with multiple IRC program offices as well as Headquarters staff.
