About This Opportunity:
Referral Process: Children are referred by their PCP, school, or parent(s) to Network 180 (CMH). If the child qualifies for I/DD services, they are referred to Spectrum Community Services for support coordination. All services are voluntary. Clients must have active Medicaid and reside in Kent County.
A Support Coordinator provides family-focused services to children with developmental disabilities. The goal is to assist children in building on their strengths while helping families remain safely together in the family home. The Support Coordinator works in environments convenient to the child and family to link, monitor, and coordinate services throughout Kent County.
