Job Description

THE SELECTED CANDIDATE WILL BE OFFERED A SALARY BETWEEN $84,863.00 - $97,593.00.

THIS POSITION IS ONLY OPEN TO CANDIDATES WHO ARE PERMANENT (NOT PROVISIONAL) IN THE CIVIL SERVICE TITLE CHILD AND FAMILY SPECIALIST.

The Administration for Children’s Services (ACS) protects and promotes the safety and well-being of children and families through child welfare and juvenile justice services and community supports. ACS manages community-based supports and foster care services and provides subsidized childcare vouchers. ACS child protection staff respond to allegations of child maltreatment. In juvenile justice, ACS oversees detention, placement and programs for youth in the community.

The Division of Youth and Family Justice (DYFJ) provides a wide range of services and programs for youth at every stage of the juvenile justice process. Our goals are to (a) build stronger and safer communities and advance public safety by preventing juveniles from entering the New York City's juvenile justice system, (b) provide therapeutic treatment and services to youth in our custodial care, and (c) help juveniles access the tools they need to leave the justice system for good. We strive to help families and young people by providing supportive services that are responsive to the needs of individual youth and families.

The Office of Youth and Family Development within the Division of Youth and Family Justice (DYFJ) works collaboratively to engage families, youth, ACS-contracted service providers, community supports, and foster parents in decisions concerning a youth’s goals, strengths, needs, service provision, well-being, and permanency. The Office facilitates Planning/Support Meetings and End of Placement Conferences for youth following placement with ACS by a New York City Family Court Judge in the Close to Home program.

Specific duties of the Family Engagement Facilitator include but are not limited to the following:

- Facilitate planning, support meetings and end of placement conferences using Children’s Services Family Team Conference Model throughout the five boroughs.

- Actively participate in planning conferences and service termination conferences to ensure service plans and decisions reflect ACS’ values, principles and standards for best practice.

- Ensure all concerns are fully identified and addressed, and all goals and service plans are developed and implemented.

- Conduct and participate in meetings with youth and families, community-based organizations and neighborhood networks (e.g. by providing information, facilitating agenda, and encouraging relevant discussion) in furtherance of service plans and treatment goals of youth and families.

- Collaborate and coordinate with internal divisions and ACS-contracted provider agencies to guarantee open communication on individual cases while maintaining fidelity to the DYFJ Case Coordination Business Process.

- Provide recommendations to ACS-contracted Non-Secure and Limited-Secure residential and aftercare providers regarding referrals and available resources.

- Complete administrative functions, including the timely documentation and data entry of planning, support meetings.

- Consistently apply and uphold state and city law, regulations, and policy related to delivery of juvenile justice services.

- Collaborate with the Office of Planning, Policy and Performance concerning provider agency performance.

- Attend inter/intra-agency meetings to share information and develop policies and procedures.

- Provide ongoing trainings with a focus on establishing goals with youth, families, providers and confer with ACS staff on goal development.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
