Job description

Progress Foundation provides a continuum of behavioral healthcare to Bay Area communities, including San Francisco, San Rafael, Santa Rosa, and Napa.

Our programs serve as alternatives to being stabilized in a hospital or institution, and offer opportunity for rehabilitation in voluntary, homey environments. Programs range from an Urgent Care Clinic, to short-term residential Crisis Services, to long-term residential Transitional Services, to Supported and Independent Living. Our programs are meant to keep people with serious mental illness in their communities, surrounded by their support networks and loved ones.

Folks who believe people with serious mental illness deserve voluntary opportunities for rehabilitation are encouraged to apply. Folks with experience – rather than a degree – are also encouraged to apply. While people pursuing licensure as clinicians do work at Progress Foundation, we welcome those from a wide variety of backgrounds and not just psychology, psychiatry, or other medical-model mental health treatment fields.

Those with backgrounds in Social Work, Disability Justice, Advocacy, or Activism, and Harm Reduction are also welcomed.

Progress Foundation strongly values community-based care, client-centered services, and diverse teams with wide-ranging points of view. Strategic community leaders who will advocate for clients and social rehabilitation as an alternative to hospitalization or institutionalization are highly sought after.
