Job Opening: Full Time Paid Position at CALM to join the SafeCare project starting soon

CALM has an exciting opportunity to be part of a funded research project utilizing the SafeCare model. This project will provide 18 to 20 home visits to families with young children 0-5 where there is risk for neglect. In addition to joining the Great Beginnings Team, the person selected will be part of a wider collaboration across agencies and counties with supportive mentoring and coaching from national experts and a research team from UCSD. The position starts in February and will be funded for at least one year. The position will continue after this if funding permits.

Candidates should be familiar with home visiting as a strategy for child abuse prevention, have some knowledge of early childhood development, be able and willing to follow the SafeCare model and be committed to evidence-based practice. This position also provides an opportunity to be in a leadership/team supervisor role with the local cross-agency team and eventually to become a trainer in the SafeCare model in our community. BA or MA preferred.

Please submit resumes, letters of interest or emails to Deborah Holmes.

Equal Employment Opportunity

CALM is an equal opportunity employer and makes employment decisions on the basis of merit. We want to have the best available persons in every job. CALM policy prohibits unlawful discrimination based on race, color, creed, gender (including pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions), religion, marital status, age, national origin or ancestry, physical or mental disability (including pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions), legally-protected medical condition (cancer-related), sexual orientation, or any other consideration made unlawful by federal, state or local laws. All such discrimination is unlawful.

CALM is committed to complying with all applicable laws providing equal employment opportunities. This commitment applies to all persons involved in the operations of CALM and prohibits unlawful discrimination by any employee of CALM, including supervisors and co-workers.

To comply with applicable laws ensuring equal employment opportunities to qualified individuals with a disability, CALM will make reasonable accommodations for the known physical or mental limitations of an otherwise qualified individual with a disability who is an applicant or an employee unless undue hardship would result.

Any applicant or employee who requires an accommodation in order to perform the essential functions of the job should discuss their needs with their supervisor and request such an accommodation. The individual with the disability should specify what accommodation he or she needs to perform the job. CALM then will conduct an investigation to identify the barriers that make it difficult for the applicant or employee to have an equal opportunity to perform his or her job. CALM will identify possible accommodations, if any, that will help eliminate the limitation. If CALM determines that an accommodation is reasonable and will not impose an undue hardship, CALM will make an accommodation.

If you believe you have been subjected to any form of unlawful discrimination, provide a written complaint to your supervisor or the Executive Director. Your complaint should be specific and should include the names of the individuals involved and the names of any witnesses. CALM will promptly undertake a thorough and objective investigation and attempt to resolve the situation. If CALM determines that unlawful discrimination has occurred, effective remedial action will be taken commensurate with the severity of the offense. Appropriate action also will be taken to deter any future discrimination.

CALM will not retaliate against you for filing a complaint, participating in an investigation, or supporting a complaint of unlawful discrimination, and will not knowingly permit such retaliation by management employees or your co-workers. If you believe you have been subjected to such retaliation, report it immediately to your supervisor or the Executive Director.
