Outreach Advocate
Salary: $28 per hour
The Community Safety Crisis and Incident Response Through Community-Led Engagement (C.I.R.C.L.E.) program is a 24/7 unarmed response program that deploys a team of mental health professionals and individuals with lived experience to address non-violent LAPD calls related to unhoused individuals experiencing crisis.
Through this public health approach, the City is able to improve community safety and outcomes for Angelenos in need of social services and support.
The goals of the program are to: (1) disrupt the reciprocal relationship between homelessness and the criminal justice system by promptly responding to diverted non-violent incidents related to persons experiencing homelessness (PEH); (2) de-escalate and stabilize incidents involving unhoused individuals; and (3) create enduring positive outcomes for those individuals through trauma informed rapport building, connections to services and resources, and case management.
The Outreach Advocate functions as part of a two-person Response Team (RT) consisting of an Outreach Supervisor and an Outreach Advocate.
RTs will rapidly respond to diverted incidents from the City, including, but not limited to, LAPD, designated City agencies, and City-designated partners.
The diverted incidents will pertain to PEH and will include, but will not be limited to, welfare checks, loitering or trespassing, inadequate clothing, noise disturbances, mental health-related disturbances, a person under the influence of a substance, requests for assistance, syringe disposal, verbal disputes, and transport to shelter/resources.
Under the supervision of the C.I.R.C.L.E.
Program Manager and the Chief Program Officer, the Outreach Supervisor provides leadership in responding to diverted incidents and will also work to coordinate with local stakeholders to connect PEH to applicable services, programs and benefits.
This is a temporary, contract-funded, full-time, benefited position.
