At Christian Family Solutions, we are committed to healing and helping people in need with the same excellence and unconditional love that Jesus Christ demonstrated in His ministry. It is our goal to help clients feel welcomed, safe, and supported within our family of care.  When someone is called to a career with a strong sense of purpose, it’s more than a job.

What you will be doing

We are seeking a School-Based Intake Specialist to provide services within our School-Based Counseling Partnership Program.

In this role, you will also facilitate the scheduling of admissions, support smooth transitions into services, and coordinate appropriate discharge processes when services conclude. Your ability to build relationships, communicate effectively, and manage multiple priorities will help ensure positive referral outcomes and an exceptional experience for the clients and schools we serve.
