About the Department
Hennepin County Crisis Services is looking to hire three Senior Mental Health Crisis Therapists to join their Cope team. These positions provide the opportunity to make a difference in diverse communities, enhance your clinical skills in a fast-paced team environment, and strengthen communities by improving the health of individuals and families.
Cope is a 24/7 mobile crisis program that provides crisis services in Hennepin County. Community members call Cope when they or loved ones are having a difficult time managing a crisis and/or are seeking community supports. As a team member, you will make decisions about an individual's safety in real time while assessing their strengths. Instead of managing a caseload, you will be providing individuals and families with safety planning and reassurance in times of crisis while determining their needs and resources. It takes passion and a willingness to work with people in crisis.
