What it’s like to work here
We love God and we love people. Love like that motivates us to cast a big vision and believe that, together, we can change the world through family. For nearly 80 years, our faith has inspired us to serve children and families close to home and around the world.

How your role makes a difference

When families face challenging situations or crises, children become more vulnerable to trauma or neglect. That’s why Bethany offers Intact Family Services. Parents can get the help they need to resolve issues such as domestic violence, substance use, mental health challenges, and more—before their children face harm or require temporary out-of-home placement.
At Bethany, we believe every family deserves to be safe, loved, and connected. As an Intact Family Services case manager, you’ll be part of a team providing conducting in-home visits, and coordinating services that strengthen families so they can safely care for their children at home.

• Conducting visits to meet with children and families in a variety of locations;
• Serving as a resource of information to meet the needs of the children and their families;
• Attending training, meetings, and supervision sessions to equip you in your role;
• Preparing reports and required documentation;

We invest you

• Experience working in a team environment with other professionals who support one another, pursue excellence, and are in it for the long haul.
• Access to training, professional development, and career growth opportunities.
