Are you looking for an opportunity to advance your career while working with an extraordinary team?

At Merakey, we put heart and soul into everything we do.

We are seeking a Community Liaison to join our BHUCC Urgent Care team at our Philadelphia, PA location.

We are a mental health urgent care/walk-in center for adults in need of same-day care that is not an emergency in Philadelphia. We serve individuals experiencing emotional distress, mental health concerns, and/or substance use concerns. Individuals will participate in triage, resolution-focused services, and aftercare planning to prepare for long-term recovery and connection to ongoing care. We serve individuals regardless of income or insurance status. Our services do not replace the need for ongoing mental health care; rather, we aim to reduce avoidable visits to crisis centers and emergency rooms by helping people get the care they need when they need it.

The Community Liaison plays a pivotal role in engaging with the local community to provide support and resources to individuals, families, and community stakeholders experiencing behavioral health urgent care needs.

• Attends outreach and engagement events, provides benefit enrollment assistance, conducts outreach calls,
• makes referrals and linkages, and provides caring follow-up contact to individuals with general inquiries about the BHUCC.
• Collaborates with community organizations, local agencies, and BHUCC staff to ensure that those in need receive education and resources within the BHUCC.

Earn $25.20 / hour.
