Service Coordinator

Founded in 1974, Community Access continues to uphold and operate as a pioneer of supportive housing and social services in NYC for people with mental health concerns. We proudly lead advocacy efforts that rally our community to promote human rights, social justice, and economic opportunities for all. We are built upon the simple truth that people are experts in their own lives. Our programs are spread across 25 locations and include over 1200 units of supportive housing in three boroughs, the Howie the Harp Advocacy Center, Peer-driven Crisis Respite Center, Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) and the Intensive Mobile Team (IMT).

The Housing department provides permanent and affordable supportive housing for individuals living with mental health concerns and low-income community residents and families, as well as licensed transitional residential programs for individuals moving from institutions into the community. Services are geared towards assisting people in maintaining their housing and moving forward with their lives in stable community-based environments.

The Service Coordinator provides engagement and comprehensive support services to program participants who are living in Community Access’ supported housing programs. The Service Coordinator supports program participants using a person-centered model that supports individuals in maintaining their housing and developing and reaching goals that could include but are not limited to furthering their recovery, accessing community-based treatment and support services, connecting to community, family and social support networks, and exploring educational or vocational opportunities. Service Coordinators are responsible for providing individual support as well as community building group activities.
