THE OPPORTUNITY

The Staten Island Justice Center (SIJC) seeks to re-engineer the experience of criminal court in Staten Island, New York, by providing judges and attorneys meaningful alternatives to bail, fines, and jail sentences. Operating out of Richmond County Criminal Court along with community-based offices, SIJC is a team of social service providers, court-based resource coordinators, mental health practitioners, compliance specialists, and others who seek to improve the quality of justice. Supervised Release offers an alternative to jail by providing pretrial supervision, case management, and voluntary social services to people charged with misdemeanor and felony offenses, and in doing so, uses an arrest as a window of opportunity to change the direction of a participant’s life, avoiding the harmful effects of incarceration. Program participants are monitored to ensure their appearance at court dates and mandatory programming, and receive referrals to services like job training, drug treatment, and mental health counseling.

SIJC seeks a Case Management Coordinator for the borough’s Supervised Release Program (SRP). Reporting to the SRP Director of Practice, the Case Management Coordinator is responsible for employing quality assurance measures to ensure the program is adhering to the program model and employing best practices aligned with organizational values, including a commitment to Operational Excellence.
