Position Overview

Wraparound Maryland, Inc. is seeking a dedicated, resourceful, and empathetic Housing Stabilization Specialist to provide direct care and non-clinical case management for the Pathways Home program. This community-based initiative serves approximately 25 low-income households and 80 unduplicated individuals annually in Worcester County, specifically targeting individuals, families, and Transition-Aged Youth (TAY, ages 18–30) facing housing instability, system transitions, and economic hardship.

The Specialist works directly on the front lines to help participants navigate the transition from homelessness, incarceration, foster care, or institutional settings into stable, long-term housing and self-sufficiency.

Key Responsibilities & Direct Care Duties

• Housing & Financial Stabilization: Coordinate immediate housing relief by managing and distributing program resources, including rental assistance, security deposits, and utility support to prevent displacement and reduce homelessness.
• Non-Clinical Case Management: Conduct regular check-ins and assessments to help participants identify barriers to stability. Assist in building long-term self-sufficiency goals and navigating complex adult systems.
• Care Coordination & Resource Navigation: Link participants to critical community resources, including behavioral health services, employment opportunities, and local healthcare networks.
• Document Acquisition Support: Directly assist participants in removing barriers to employment and housing by helping them obtain vital records, including birth certificates, state identifications, and Social Security documentation.
• Drop-In Services Engagement: Oversee and facilitate low-barrier drop-in supportive services. Provide participants with access to showers, hygiene supplies, and light refreshments to build trust, maintain dignity, and encourage continuous program participation.
• Population-Specific Support: Tailor care approaches to meet the distinct needs of priority populations:
  • Individuals and families experiencing or at imminent risk of homelessness.
  • Justice-involved individuals returning to the community post-incarceration.
