Who is CATCH? 

Every Family. Every Person. A Home. A deep belief that everyone deserves stable and permanent housing is at the core of our culture. We end homelessness for households in Idaho’s Treasure Valley by inspiring stable housing, financial independence, and resilience. Each year, we co-create a new story for over 220 people using a Housing First philosophy. 

We serve more than 60 families each year across 9 counties and 2 program sites in Idaho’s Treasure Valley. With integrated services including case management and behavioral health, CATCH's person-centered model of care offers the families that we serve individualized care, rental assistance, home visits, and stabilization supports.

The Behavioral Health Case manager reports to the Therapist/Clinical Director and works in a multi-disciplinary team of case managers, a counselor, and landlord liaisons. This position will provide behavioral health interventions and consultation to clients served to improve psychosocial functioning. 

It is the policy of CATCH to ensure equal employment opportunity without discrimination or harassment on the basis of race (including hairstyle/texture), color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, marital status, citizenship, national origin, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by law. CATCH prohibits any such discrimination or harassment.

CATCH is committed to valuing diverse experiences and encourages individuals with personal experiences to apply. Your lived experience can be regarded as equally important as professional work experience in our organization. A “lived expert” is someone who has direct, personal experience with the issues our organization addresses, such as overcoming challenges related to mental health, addiction, experiencing homelessness, or the carceral system. This valuable insight comes from first hand involvement rather than formal training, and it brings a unique and important perspective to our work.
