Mental Performance Coach (Community)
Job Description
Job Description
Position Summary
The Mental Performance Coach (MPC) is Butterfly Support Services' case manager role. MPCs identify and screen prospective clients for basic eligibility, then work directly with youth, adults, and families in the community to carry out each client's Treatment Plan. MPCs also build and maintain relationships with referral sources such as school districts, colleges, and human services agencies.
Once a client begins services, the MPC picks them up, conducts home visits, implements the Treatment Plan in public settings, and returns them home. The position involves significant travel and is a strong fit for candidates already involved in the community with youth and families.
Schedule and Work Setting
This is a full-time, second-shift position serving youth and adults. Hours are usually 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, plus daytime Saturdays during the school year, with daytime hours in the summer. School-based MPCs may work primarily during school hours.
MPCs set their own schedules around client availability, which is most often late afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Weekend work is required as needed.
The work is field-based rather than office-based. MPCs drive from home to home and meet clients and families at homes, schools, libraries, and other community facilities. Many clients live in the Cincinnati area.
