Launch Housing has an ambitious and singular mission to end homelessness. We aim to get people housed, keep them housed, and be an influential voice on ending homelessness. We are a secular, independent provider of choice for clients and the ‘go to' organisation on homelessness for government, media, philanthropy, private donors and the community.

We are seeking enthusiastic Case Managers to fill a housing support worker vacancy in our Drug Court Housing Support program (DCHS) here at our Collingwood site. DCHS is a partnership program between Launch Housing and the Department of Justice – Court Support Victoria. The program provides intensive housing support to clients who are sentenced to a Drug Treatment Order and are deemed most vulnerable; those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and have complex support needs. DCHS provides targeted properties and support services.

 

The Case Manager role involves assertive outreach to clients in targeted properties in addition to those residing in crisis accommodation and relies heavily on effective collaboration with clients and external services.
